Evidence

Mannoni has described what he calls the Prospero complex. We shall come back to these discoveries, which will make it possible for us to understand the psychology of colonialism. But we can already state that to talk pidginnigger is to express this thought: “You’d better keep your place.” — Frantz Fanon, Constance Farrington, Black skin, white masks, 126
