“The history of hysteria is a history of the relation between the colonizing father and the colonized devalued other.”

“Colonized painting, for instance, is balanced between poles. From excessive submission to Europe resulting in depersonalization, it passes to such a violent return to self that it is obnoxious and esthetically illusory. The right balance not being found, the self-accusation continues. Before and during the revolt, the colonized always considers the colonizer as a model or as an antithesis. He continues to struggle against him. He was torn between what he was and what he wanted to be, and now he is making of himself. Nonetheless, the painful discord with himself continues.

In order to witness the colonized's complete cure, his alienation must completely cease. We must await the complete disappearance of colonization--including the period of revolt.”
Albert Memmi, The Colonizer and the Colonized

“If we can stop undermining ourselves as Africans and start valuing who are and what we have.

We must stop it ,with the mental of thinking that people who speaks their native tongue. Who following their tradition, practices their culture and value their heritage . Don鈥檛 know things, are lame, boring, retards, not interesting, not modern, not clued up and not Important enough. Thinking that they are behind, slow, old fashion and school, because they don鈥檛 know western or they don鈥檛 know the things we know or following up with trends ,fashion and western as we do. Invest In yourself by embracing who you are.”
De philosopher DJ Kyos
