The Negro serves the same scapegoat function as the Jew
Evidence
The anti-Semite projects on to the Jew, ascribes to the Jew all his own more or less unconscious bad instincts… . Thus, in ridding himself of them by heaping them on the shoulders of the Jew, he has purged himself of them in his own eyes and sees himself in shining purity. The Jew thus lends himself magnificently to a projection of the Devil… . The Negro in the United States assumes the same function of fixation. — Frantz Fanon, Constance Farrington, Black skin, white masks, 1020 (
