The damned of the earth

"You know exactly that we are exploiters. You know exactly that we first took 
the gold and the metals und then the oil of the "new continents" and brought 
it in our old mother contries. Not without excellent results: Palaces, 
kathedrals, industrial cities... This fat and colourless continent addicted 
to something that Fanon rightly calls "narcism"... And what does Europe do? 
And North America, this "transeuropean" monster? They  talk about freedom, 
equality, brotherhood, love, honor, fatherland, whatever. All this doesn't 
hinder us to speak in a racist way at the same time: dirty nigger, dirty jew, 
dirty arab. Liberals and other highly sensitive souls - with other word, 
neo-colonialists - said they were "shocked" about this inconsequence. Either 
mistake or bad conscience:nothing's more consequent than racist humanism, 
because the European made himself to a human being by creating slaves and 
monsters."
Jean-Paul Sartre, foreword in: Frantz Fanon, The Damned of the Earth 
(september 1961). My translation.
One year later, Sartre's apartment in Paris was destroyed by a bomb of the 
OAS.

Terrance - keep on staying on the list! We need you - and of course all the 
others!!!!
