"Every colonized people - in other words, every people in whose soul an inferiority complex has been created by the death and burial of its local cultural originality - finds itself face to face with the language of the civilizing nation; that is, with the culture of the mother country. The colonized is elevated above his jungle status in pro- portion to his adoption of the mother country's cultural standards. He becomes whiter as he renounces his blackness, his jungle." - Frantz Fanon, Black Skin, White Mask.
