Disability and racial difference are fused into a single category of moral monstrosity
Evidence
At the age of twentyâat the time, that is, when the collective unconscious has been more or less lost, or is resistant at least to being raised to the conscious levelâthe Antillean recognizes that he is living an error. Why is that? Quite simply becauseâand this is very importantâthe Antillean has recognized himself as a Negro, but, by virtue of an ethical transit, he also feels (collective unconscious) that one is a Negro to the degree to which one is wicked, sloppy, malicious, instinctual. Everything that is the opposite of these Negro modes of behavior is white. This must be recognized as the source of Negrophobia in the Antillean. â Frantz Fanon, Constance Farrington, Black skin, white masks, 671 (
