Note on "The Black skins and white masks."

Introduction:-

Frantz Fanon was born in Martinique in 1925 and received a traditional colonial education. When he went to France to fight for resistance and training as a psychiatrist, his assimilationist illusion was overwhelmed by the gaze of metropolitan racism. His first book, Black Skin White Mask (1952), was based on his experiences with racism, Fanon, in this book, defines colonial relations as the mental non-recognition of the subjectivity of immigrants. His next work is The Richard of the Earth. Stuart Hall describes the book as the "Bible of the decolonization movement." Fanon died in 1961, just as Algeria was gaining its independence. But his final texts challenge whites to free themselves from all forms of mental domination. "Black Skin White Mask" is a book about the mentality or psychology of racism. The book looks at what goes on in the minds of black and white people under the conditions of white rule and its strange influences on black people. The book is his doctoral thesis, written by Fanon to get a degree in psychiatry. The book is worth reading because of Fanon's understanding of white French racism in the early 1950s and may also help to understand white American racism in the 2010s.

The black man and Language:-

It is most important to think of that language first. The black man has two dimensions. One blackens his partner and the other with whites. A black man behaves differently with a white man than he does with another black man, he is also important for reality, but he is not only white for a man, but also white. This objective fact is the reality of the state. It is not for the situation and the work done is understandable. And impotent for the success achieved and it is impotent for any language. But below more black French language and white also he gets the color one gets to be a true human being. Why always black man justifies his attitude in relation to language. Language becomes God so why only black man had to be a victim of life. In all plays it is the same kind of capital so the problem is the same. Plane trees and many other things that are gorgeous that have nothing to do?

The black man entering France reads the legend of Martini, who swallows what works on him and enters into an open conflict with him. There is a psychological phenomenon that involves believing that the world will open up when borders are broken. They meet and talk. And newcomers are quickly given the floor as they wait for it. Wearing European clothes it is often original. French floor woman and a “The Power of Language” And even if Monsieur Breton was telling the truth, I don't see where the contradiction is. I don’t see why there should be any emphasis because all the time is MartiniCanaga after Krisier. French will represent the refuge of the language as the second language they have learned. Black will respond We should respect that a white man like Breton writes such things about us.


The Woman Color and The White Man:-

Man is a movement of love that is a gift of the self, the final stage which is commonly called the moral approach. Every consciousness seems to be able to show evidence of these two elements simultaneously or alternately. Analysts and epistemologists have a hard time understanding the extraordinary phenomenon of this order and man has true love, real love. This chapter is devoted to the relationship between a woman of color and a European man. We will try to determine the extent to which authentic love will be impossible until this feeling of inferiority or this Adler is aroused.

  "I would have liked to marry a white man. Simply, colored in the eyes of every right to be related. Apart from this in a sense it is brought into the corner. Expect this to exist.  Mayotte, a woman named Capelin, whose inspiration followed, the reasons for which are hard to understand, sat down and wrote 202 pages on her life, the most ridiculous of which. Mayotte loves the white man unconditionally. He is fat. He asks for nothing, considering nothing but a little whiteness in his life. And then she asks herself if she is generous or ugly. Those writers "Everyone knows she has blue eyes, blond hair, pale complexion and I love her." And the black man has fear and blue eyes.

The Man of colour and the White Woman :

White woman like white man. She says she likes white man saying she loves him like a white man because he was a white man. Her love opens the famous path that leads to perfect fulfillment. White culture and merit become mine. Thirty years ago a dark-skinned black man in full coats with a live blonde aimed at a live blonde

  "We will try to understand the case of the black man" will study the attitude of the black man in depth. This is the thread of the matter. "He doesn't understand his gender." And “Negroes from their colonies also do not hold the key to the black man who shaped their image. Unable to unify the uninitiated without anyone noticing he begins to communicate with the dead or at least is absent. "Nigra, we want to be like a lot of white boys."  The Negroes adopted Mather Ther Land and they too are ashamed of a white man and in this way we come to grips and adopt the language and whiteness, which is not the birth contained on it, it does not seem that the over-mindedness determined by society goes away and  They think that one becomes good and superior to society.

  She needs a white man after she cools a brother they don't become black men. Listen to Jean's tendency to recover from a lack of confidence in the past and an impossibility to explain himself which can describe a small hothouse kind of frustration. At the end of the chapter see how a woman looks at a man not only in color, but also in other quilts. Black men are no different than black and white.

A key element in the postcolonial agenda is to disassemble Eurocentric standards of literary and artistic values ​​and expand literary theory to include colonial and subsequent authors. And at the moment we are analyzing Fenon's book 'Black Skin, White Mask'. The book is divided into several chapters. Each chapter has its own significance. They deal with the mental aspect. It includes the status of black people and their mentality.
Franz Fanon was influenced by many thinkers and traditions, including Jean-Paul Paul Sarre, Lacan, Negritude and Marxism.  He was influenced by Aim Caesar, the leader of the Neglected Movement, an admired teacher and mentor on the island of Martinique. Fanon referred to Caesar's writing as his own composition.
