White society accepts the educated black only by denying he is genuinely black

Evidence

When the question is put directly, then, the white man agrees to give his sister to the black–but on one condition: You have nothing in common with real Negroes. You are not black, you are “extremely brown.” … This procedure is quite familiar to colored students in France. Society refuses to consider them genuine Negroes. The Negro is a savage, whereas the student is civilized. “You’re ‘us,’” Coulanges tells him; and if anyone thinks you are a Negro he is mistaken, because you merely look like one. But Jean Veneuse does not want this. He cannot accept it, because he knows. — Frantz Fanon, Constance Farrington, Black skin, white masks, 251 (#corroborates, via linked claim)
