I had to meet the white man's eyes. An unfamiliar weight burdened me. In the white world the man of colour encounters difficulties in the development of his bodily schemes ... I was battered down by tom‐toms, cannibalism, intellectual deficiency, fetishism, racial defects ... I took myself off far from my own presence ... What else could it be for me but an amputation, an excision, a haemorrhage that splattered my whole body with black blood? (Fanon 1968)
