The European family mirrors the nation so home values carry into adult life

Bacon County is my home place, and I’ve had to make do with it. — Crews, Harry, A childhood the biography of a place, 100 (#expands, via linked claim)

In the same issue of Presence Africaine, Emile Dermenghem, who cannot be accused of Negrophobia, said: “One of my childhood memories is of a visit to the World’s Fair of 1900, during which my chief enthusiasm was to see a Negro. My imagination had naturally been stimulated by my reading: Capitaine de quinze ans (A Captain at Fifteen), Les Aventures de Robert (Robert’s Adventures), Les Voyages de Livingstone (Livingstone’s Travels).” Dermenghem tells us that this was the manifestation of his taste for the exotic. While I may be prepared to put my two hands into his and believe the Dermenghem who wrote the article, I ask his permission to entertain doubts about the Dermenghem of the 1900 Fair. — Frantz Fanon, Constance Farrington, Black skin, white masks, 708 (#complicates, via linked claim)
