Document Summary
Believe colonized are corrosive elements: destroying everything within their reach and distorting everything that involves morals: they reach points as to dehumanize the colonized subjects: reducing them to the state of an animal. Colonized people learnt from the colonizers that the individual has to assert himself. Drilled in the notion that society consists of individuals who are each locked in their own subjectivity: wealth lies in thought. Colonized will realize this is false: they will use different terms such as brother" and. Sister" to outlaw the colonialist bourgeoisie: egoism, arrogance. The colonized has to assimilate the way the colonialist bourgeoisie think: colonized have an inaptitude to engage in dialogue and thus make him himself able to think when confronted with a purpose / idea. The colonized can not become distracted by detail: giving priority to the detail of thing will make them forget the purpose their struggle: the defeat of colonialism (they have a hard time seeing the overall picture)
