" "At risk of arousing the resentment of my colored brothers, I will say that the black is not a man.

Additional quotes by Frantz Fanon

What matters today, the issue which blocks the horizon, is the need for a redistribution of wealth. Humanity will have to address this question, no matter how devastating the consequences may be.
