The French colonialists were so vicious that famous African psychiatrist Franz Fanon, who studied the psyche of the French, in his 1961 book The Wretched of the Earth advised his fellow Africans: “Let us waste no time in sterile litanies and nauseating mimicry. Leave this Europe where they are never done talking of Man, yet murder men everywhere they find them, at the corner of every one of their own streets, in all the corners of the globe. For centuries they have stifled almost the whole of humanity in the name of a so-called spiritual experience. Look at them today swaying between atomic and spiritual disintegration.”
