Topic: Different types of Media

Introduction:

The term news media refers to the groups that communicate information and news to people. Most Americans get their information about government from the news media because it would be impossible to gather all the news themselves. Media outlets have responded to the increasing reliance of Americans on television and the Internet by making the news even more readily available to people. There are various types of media for advertising.

 Radio

Radio advertising is very popular these days. The advertisements are broadcasted from different stations of All India Radio. Radio advertising can be explained as “word of mouth advertising on a wholesale scale”. The advertising messages can be in different regional languages.

The most important advantage derived from radio advertising is that it covers every type of listener whether illiterate or educated. It is a very effective medium for popularizing on mass scale various consumer articles. The coverage of this medium is wider extending to a large number of listeners. It ensures quicker repetition.

Radio advertising suffers from shorter life, limited memory and short messages. Cost of advertising is higher. The message may not be heard properly by the listener. There is no secrecy. This is useful for those who possess radio sets. There is lesser flexibility and lack of personal touch.

 Television

  Television advertising offers the benefit of reaching large numbers in a single exposure. Yet because it is a mass medium capable of being seen by nearly anyone, television lacks the ability to deliver an advertisement to highly targeted customers compared to other media outlets. Television networks are attempting to improve their targeting efforts. In particular, networks operating in the pay-to-access arena, such as those with channels on cable and satellite television, are introducing more narrowly themed programming designed to appeal to selective audiences. However, television remains an option that is best for products that targeted to a broad market.

This is the latest and the fast developing medium of advertising and is getting increased popularity these days. It is more effective as compared to radio as it has the advantages of sound and sight. On account of pictorial presentation, it is more effective and impressive and leaves ever lasting impression on the mind of the viewer.

It is a very costly medium which can be employed by big concerns only; it has a shorter life span and limited coverage. Back reference to the advertisement cannot be made after its presentation. The duration of the advertisement is very limited.

Despite of the above mentioned drawbacks, this method of advertising is gaining rapid coverage and immense popularity among the masses.

 Film

This is also known as cinema advertising. This also provides sight and hearing facilities like television. Short advertisement films are not prepared by big business houses which are sent to different cinema houses to be shown to the audience before the regular shows or during the intermission. It has more repetitive value but not to the same viewers. Its coverage is limited which benefits the local population only.

It is a very costly medium involving higher distribution and film making costs. Only big organizations can afford to produce advertisement films. It ensures more flexibility at larger costs. Its effectiveness cannot be measured properly. Film making is a time consuming process.

Print Media

The oldest media forms are newspapers, magazines, journals, newsletters, and other printed material. These publications are collectively known as the print media. Although print media readership has declined in the last few decades, many Americans still read a newspaper every day or a newsmagazine on a regular basis. The influence of print media is therefore significant. Regular readers of print media tend to be more likely to be politically active.

The print media is responsible for more reporting than other news sources. Many news reports on television, for example, are merely follow-up stories about news that first appeared in newspapers. The top American newspapers, such as the New York Times, the Washington Post, and the Los Angeles Times, often set the agenda for many other media sources.

 Newspapers and Magazines:

These are the important forms of press advertising, newspapers are the most effective and powerful medium of advertising. Newspapers contain valuable information with regard to different current events. It may be referred to as ‘a store house of information’. There are daily and weekly newspapers. Newspapers have widest circulation and read by many people. The newspapers may be local, provincial or national.

There is a separate advertisement department in every newspaper which classifies and designs different advertisements in the paper. Before selecting a newspaper the advertiser should take into consideration various factors viz., coverage of the newspaper, the class of customers and the cost of advertising etc.

Newspapers have been dominating the local markets since its very inception particularly though its classified advertisements. They offer flexibility to the readers and provide added support in promotion as well as research related function relating to a product or service. Magazines are broadly categorized into consumer magazines and business magazines which may be further subdivided into monthly and weekly publications. They also offer wide reach to the masses. The fashion industry mostly uses this form of media to promote their garments and cosmetics and other accessories

The Internet

The Internet is slowly transforming the news media because more Americans are relying on online sources of news instead of traditional print and broadcast media. Americans surf the sites of more traditional media outlets, such as NBC and CNN, but also turn to unique online news sources such as weblogs. Websites can provide text, audio, and video information, all of the ways traditional media are transmitted. The web also allows for a more interactive approach by allowing people to personally tailor the news they receive via personalized web portals, newsgroups, podcasts, and RSS feeds.

Weblogs known colloquially as blogs have become very influential since the start of the twenty-first century. Leading bloggers write their opinions on a variety of issues, and thousands of people respond on message boards. Although many blogs are highly partisan and inaccurate, a few have been instrumental in breaking big stories.

   So these are some important tools and also useful people or viewers can easily get any information or news with the help of media so it is also useful for communication , even it is also important for advertising because it is the best way for it.

Themes in The Da Vinci Code

Paper: New Literature

Topic: Themes in  TheDa Vinci Code

The Da Vinci code written by Dan Brown and the novel is about investigation or about the search of the secret Holy Grail. The Da Vinci code book one of best work of Dan brown. There are various themes in this novel which are given here,

Themes in The Da Vinci Code:

THE SUBJECTIVITY OF HISTORY

The Da Vinci Code raises the question of whether history books necessarily tell the only truth. The novel is full of reinterpretations of commonly told stories, such as those of Jesus’ life, the pentacle, and the Da Vinci fresco The Last Supper. Brown provides his own explanation of how the Bible was compiled and of the missing gospels. Langdon even interprets the Disney movie The Little Mermaid, recasting it as an attempt by Disney to show the divine femininity that has been lost. All of these retellings are presented as at least partly true.

THE INTELLIGENCE OF WOMEN

Characters in The Da Vinci Code ignore the power of women at their peril. Throughout the novel, Sophie is underestimated. She is able to sneak into the Louvre and give Langdon a secret message, saving him from arrest, because Fache does not believe her to be capable of doing her job. Fache specifically calls Sophie a “female cryptologist” when he is expressing his doubts about Sophie and Langdon’s ability to evade Interpol. When interpreting one of the clues hidden in the rose box, Langdon and Teabing leave Sophie out, completely patronizing her. When she is finally allowed to see the clue, she immediately understands how to interpret it. Sophie saves Langdon from arrest countless times.

Other women are similarly underestimated. Sister Sandrine, in the Church of Saint-Sulpice, is a sentry for the Brotherhood, but Silas, indoctrinated in the hypermasculine ways of Opus Dei, does not consider her a threat. And Marie Chauvel, Sophie’s grandmother, manages to live without incident near Rosslyn Chapel for years, preserving her bloodline through Sophie’s brother.

The Subjectivity of Truth

As the thriller elements of the narrative unfold and find Langdon and Sophie being chased around the globe in pursuit of the elusive truth of the Holy Grail, they uncover a greater mystery that enhances the novel’s thematic concern with truth. In light of the controversy over the novel itself being accused of playing fast and loose with the facts, this is one theme that managed to leap off the pages and into the zeitgeist of the book’s ascension to the best seller heaven. The search for the Holy Grail ultimately hangs on an increasingly troubling series of revelations about the historical narrative of the spread of Christianity. These revelations have the effect of challenging the faith of those who have entrusted their very spiritual being upon commonly held convictions which the protagonist slowly reveal to be everything from simple misconceptions to sinister fictions engineered for the purpose of controlling the masses.

The Power of Metaphor

Langdon hints that the secret that is uncovered about the true form and existence of the Holy Grail might be better left unmentioned by the forward thrust of progress. The mystery and aura surrounding that mystery has for millennia allowed the Grail to be whatever believers make of it. The suggestion here is that faith is stronger the farther way from facts it remains situated. Coincident with this ideological view is an valid explanation for why so many of those who put their faith in the Holy Bible do so on the condition that every word is literal. When Langdon ponders over the wisdom of introducing facts into the equation by which faith arrives at truth, he is also calling into question whether such faith remains as strong and steadfast if stories and events presented as historical fact in the Bible are viewed merely as metaphor for the purpose of enlightening a larger truth. The question boils down to whether metaphor is invested with the same power to guide and condition faith as literal fact.

Feminism v. Patriarchy

Lying at the heart of the pursuit that is the centerpiece of The DaVinci Code is the historical oppression and persecution of women by the Catholic Church in particular and Christianity as a whole. What begins as the latest quest for the Holy Grail transforms into a pursuit of the Sacred Feminine as the secret history of the Catholic Church is revealed to be one with an overarching agenda to maintain the patriarchy and ensure continued dominion of men over women. Underlying this thematic consideration is assertion that the religion established in the name of Jesus Christ subverts the intention and the foundation of the beliefs of its very founder.

Art as Secret History

The protagonist of The DaVinci Code is a member of law enforcement or religion or an intelligence agency or even a traditional historian. Robert Langdon is a professor of symbology, meaning his day job is teaching the study of symbols as key to unlocking concealed knowledge. The thematic concern that drives the actual events of the narrative is the continual and consistent revelation of how art has been used throughout history by the oppressed as a means of transmitting knowledge in a way that attempts to escape detection and punishment. Langdon focuses especially on the iconoclastic art of the Renaissance which is dominated by extraordinary works that seem merely to depict figures and events form the Bible, it is eventually demonstrated that many of these works of art actually contain hidden symbols and messages, often messages that serve as ironic contradiction of the apparent intent. While Langdon is primarily guided by paintings and sculptures, the secret history of art can likewise be detected in everything from the works of Shakespeare to architectural and fashion design.

“Mystery and Wonderment That Serve Our Souls”

The major theme of this novel is expressed in a quotation by Marie Chauvel in the resolution. In this novel people believe in things, or are inspired by things, which cannot be proven true. Langdon remembers this when he looks at his Mickey Mouse watch. Similarly, people must rely on their faith in religion or faith that the Grail exists. The mystery and wonderment produced by these facets of their lives are more important than the real facts.

The Sacred Feminine

On one level, the main characters in this novel are discussing and searching for symbolic representations of the sacred feminine. However, on another, more subtle, level Brown portrays women’s power. Through Sophie Neveu, Brown illustrates an intelligent and capable woman. Moreover, Sophie frequently makes decisions based on a sixth sense not bestowed upon the male characters which Brown calls women’s intuition. Sophie’s feminine power is reinforced by the many stories told of ancient reverence for women as life-givers as well as the prominent status of Mary Magdalene.

Fanaticism

While this novel promotes faith, it also cautions against pursuing one’s beliefs to the point of fanaticism. Brown offers two examples of characters that become fanatics: Silas and Teabing. Silas is a religious fanatic. He allows his desire to please God and act on behalf of the Church to cloud his judgment. Silas is willing to murder as long as he believes he is supporting the Church.

Similarly, Lee Teabing believes so strongly in finding and revealing the Sangreal documents that he is willing to murder for his cause. While each of these men fanatically supports diametrically opposed agendas, they both come to believe that the ends justify the means. Brown seems to admonish this behavior because neither fanatical character is successful.

Topic : Themes in Things fall Apart

 

 

     “Things Fall Apart” is a literary novel written by Nigerian author Chinua Achebe in 1958. The story's main theme concerns pre- and post-colonial life in late nineteenth century Nigeria. And it is a novel about the clash between two cultures. It is seen as the archetypal modern African novel in English, one of the first to receive global critical acclaim.

Themes in Things fall Apart:

Gender

Much of the traditional Igbo life presented in this novel revolves around structured gender roles. Essentially all of Igbo life is gendered, from the crops that men and women grow, to characterization of crimes. In Igbo culture, women are the weaker sex, but are also endowed with qualities that make them worthy of worship, like the ability to bear children. The dominant role for women is: first, to make a pure bride for an honorable man, second, to be a submissive wife, and third, to bear many children. The ideal man provides for his family materially and has prowess on the battlefield. The protagonist in the novel is extremely concerned with being hyper-masculine and devalues everything feminine, leaving him rather unbalanced. Much of the gender theme in the book centers around the idea of balance between masculine and feminine forces body and mind/soul, emotionality and rationality, mother and father. If one is in imbalance, it makes the whole system haywire

Religion

The Igbo gods are mostly manifestations of nature and its elements, which makes sense because they are an agricultural society that depends on the regularity of seasons and natural phenomena to survive. They worship the goddess of the earth and are always careful to avoid committing sins against her for fear of vengeance that might wipe out an entire generation. The Igbo ancestors also take on a divine nature to some extent. Family plays such a central role in Igbo life that the spirits of their ancestors are consulted for almost every decision and even serve as judges in legal trials (in the form of masked elders). The Igbo emphasis on numerous gods associated with nature and also on ancestors and somewhat divine contrasts sharply with the single God of Christianity which seems far less directly relevant to the Igbo lifestyle.

Man and nature

As an agricultural society, the survival of the Umuofia depends on the earth and its predictable cycle of seasons. Thus we see frequent worship of the earth and her bounty, especially at the new year and during harvest season. The Igbo also reap the earth’s wealth in rather economical and effective ways – tapping trees for palm-wine, capitalizing off of locust plagues, and making medicine with herbs. Human beings are implicitly viewed as the children of the earth, though the conduct of the white men throws doubt on that assumption. In addition to being generous, the earth can also be deadly and is ruthless and not provide food and resources if offended in some way by human actions.

Respect and reputation

Reputation is extremely important to the men in the novel. Personal reputation is publicly denoted by the ankle bracelets men wear, which signify the number of “titles” they have earned. Reputation is based on merit – men gain reputation through bravery in battle, skill at wrestling, and hard work as seen through the size of their yam harvest. Reputation earns men positions of power and influence in the community as well as numerous wives. Okonkwo, the novel’s protagonist, is extremely concerned with reputation because he grew up with a father who was shameful and lazy. Okonkwo overcompensates by working tirelessly on his farm and taking every opportunity available to prove his bravery and strength.

Family

For the Igbo, there are a few key ideas that form the basis of an ideal family: mutual respect for each other, a reverence for all past fathers, and unity. The father is not only the provider for the family, but defender of its honor and teacher of his sons. The mother’s main duty is to add to the family line by bearing healthy children and also to please her husband. Children are the inheritors of the future and are raised to continue the values of the older generation. This family unit is the most fundamental unit of society and its structure can be expanded to fit a whole community or even a pantheon of gods.

Sin

In things Fall Apart, sin is defined as a crime against the gods. Such transgressions occur when a member of society violates the most intimate bonds of family, especially with regards to one’s children or somehow insults an ancestral spirit. These sins call for quick and severe punishment, often including animal sacrifices, a heavy fine, various symbolic gestures of atonement, exile from one’s fatherland, or even death. Only when such payment is given can justice be served. If punishment is not doled out, not only is the sinner subject to divine wrath, but the entire community suffers.

Fear

Many of the characters suffer from fear of some sort. Okonkwo fears becoming like his lazy, shameful father, Ekwefi fears losing her daughter, and Nwoye fears his father’s wrath. While most characters fear events that are outside of their control, Okonkwo is consumed by a terrible internal worry about himself and his identity. Rather than mastering his fear, he allows it to dominate him and drive his actions. Fear leads him to lash out in some pretty nasty ways: beating his wives, abusing and alienating his oldest son, partaking in the murder of his adoptive son, etc. Overall, fear in this novel leads characters to behave in negative ways that can bring the wrath of the gods, guilt, and the community disapproval upon them.

Society Complexity

From Achebe's own statements, we know that one of his themes is thecomplexity of Igbo society before the arrival of the Europeans. To support this theme, he includes detailed descriptions of the justice codes and the trial process, the social and family rituals, the marriage customs, food production and preparation processes, the process of shared leadership for the community, religious beliefs and practices, and the opportunities for virtually every man to climb the clan's ladder of success through his own efforts. The book may have been written more simply as a study of Okonkwo's deterioration in character in an increasingly unsympathetic and incompatible environment, but consider what would have been lost had Achebe not emphasized the theme of the complex and dynamic qualities of the Igbo in Umuofia.

So these are some important themes which reflects the life of Nigerian people and their conditions . They struggle or fight for freedom .

Double face of English in India:-

English plays a conflicting double role in India in policy and practice in public platform and private choice and in symbolic,allegiance and instrumental use.After Independence  a pattern of bilingualism has emerged at the executive, legislative ,legal and educational domains with English and an Indian languages .At the popular level however preference for English has increased in spite of political opposition to it. English is declined as our official language. Now, in our India, we have two official languages: Hindi and English and one language that the regional language as our official language.Being a global and link language, English language has become an important tool for various fields like, education, business, journalisma etc. But it plays double roles in country like “India”. There were many controversies for English language in its initial stage; it  plays a conflicting double role in India.

English language is just a medium, not our goal, but it has become our need. Because, nowadays, the higher-education is only in one language available that is English language. while dealing with the English language in education, the first and the fundamental problem is that we face some cultural conflict. Our belief system is completely different from the English Culture. Every language represents its culture and belief system. We can not translate our myths,feelings,idea or belief system or our cultural ideology into English Language.so sometimes it is very difficult to use or learn English language in India.

 Socio-Cultural dimension creates the Satanic Image of English Language towards us while learning it. we face some difficulties while translating some words in English like, we can not write in English, “Hanuman is a servant of Lord Rama.” Here, we can find the conflict while translating our ideas into English. It completely changes the meaning of the information that we want to convey. There is a lot of difference between the words like, “Bhakta” and “Servant”. When we write “Servant” for translating the word “Bhakta”, at that time, it kills the real meaning or originality of the word “Bhakta”. By this example, we can understand that it is impossible to translate our cultural belief into English language.

Parliament passed the official language bill providing for the continued use of English without time limit giving legal status to the assurance given by the prime minister Nehru in the parliament to the opponent of hindi four years earlier.English now is the associate official language of the union.As far as the states are concerned the legislative of most states passed bills making one or more of its language after linguistic reorganisation of the states the official language of the states with provision for continued use of English,one state Nagaland passed a bill making English as official language and some states have passed no bill yet in this regard.So in most states and union the official work is transacted in English and in one or more Indian languages differing in the extent and administrative levels of their use.

English is taught as a language for its instrumental value in school and colleges compulsorily in almost all parts of the country with the exception of a very few states, where it is an optional or non-examinable subject. At the secondary school stage a student should learn at least three languages and one of them is English uniformly throughout the country.

So English has been spread all over the country, except some states of India, which don’t follow the English language as a compulsory subject. It can be possible that the satanic image of the English is responsible behind this reason. The double role of the English language creates the chaotic situation in a way that it can be impossible to solve this problem.

After independence, the number of students learning English has greatly increased, but their level of competence in English has decreased. This thing completely shows the policy and practice of the English language. English is taught in the school, but the policy that is made which is not followed by the teachers or we can say that it is not put into practice. That’s why at the very initial stage (school level) students are facing difficulties to learn the English language.

This is the biggest problem in the country like India that the policy which are made for teaching English, are not put into practice by the teacher so the very beginning stage of learning English, difficulties are created by this confusion or folly. Perhaps, this creates the satanic image of English in the minds of the students.

After the second world war the power of English increased internationally in the political and commercial spheres.It was perceived that India will have some natural advantage in the world politics and commerce by officially remaining an English using country.There was a growing awesome fear that the knowledge gap cannot be caught up by the Indian languages in content and in vocabulary by interaction.The increased international morality and possibilities of higher education abroad which gave new returns to the already advantage,the importance of English education.The language despised as language of satans by the freedom fighters came to be praised as the boon of sarasvati the goddess of learning .

English has become more and more Indianised grammatical and functionally due to its use by a large number of Indians think to increased education, commerce and journalism and the Indian English was no more foreign. It’s because of widely use of English language became it our own Indianised English.

English also proved as Satan in India because English is not used in lower level – in a particular situation, so English cannot be the language of day-to-day conversation in India and it has only become medium to go for higher education and the age of specialization. We learn English as a  subject not as language.people can not easily pronounce in English or it is also difficult to speak or learn because this language is use as second language in India so students also face some problems to learn English because it is not their mother tongue.so it can be satanic side of English

India is multicultural country English serves as a link language across the nation .There are many states in India and each states has it's  own culture and language so we can not easily  understand eah and every language or we sometimes face some difficulties to communicate with each other because of less knowledge of other states language so for that we have to learn  English  so we can easily communicate  with other states or countries or English is an international language so it is easy for conversation.

Conclusion:

No doubt English is difficult for  learners because some times it creates problem to translate .But it is very useful in official and educational fields.English is an international language so Indian can learn and also use as an occupational purpose .so here English plays a conflicting double role in India as satan or as saraswati , it is not like good and bad but we can say that English language is like two sides of one coin in India.

Critique on the three chapters of Black skin white mask:

Introduction:-

Frantz Fanon was a french philosopher revolutionary and author.He wrote his first book Black skin white mask an analysis of the negative psychological effect of colonial subjugation upon black people.It is published in 1952.

This book is about the mindset or psychology of racism by frank fanon a psychiatrists. The book looks at the condition which goes through the minds of black and white people. A distinguished French Caribbean African psychiatrist and writer negritude group but soon rejected their philosophy and developed his own theory of racial and colonial theory.

This book is divided in eight chapters. Fanon talks about psychology of white colonizers and black people’s desire to be like white men. The black people want to be white. They suffer a lot and being white they want to be superior . Black people also known as Negro.The white people hate the black people.  He also talks about issue of language, marriage between white and black and psychology behind it, white mindset of ruling, black’s inequality and struggle for human existence. He explains his all the arguments of psychology with real examples of his surrounding.

Lets see first three chapters of the book Black skin white mask,

1)The Negro and Language :

Language construct the idea of civilized or uncivilized.This chapter deals with the language of white people. It shows that language of White people is in power position and Language of Black people has lesser importance.  In this chapter the author discusses that if a black person does not learn the white man’s language perfectly, he is unintelligent yet if he does learn it perfectly, he has washed his brain in the world of racial ideology.  So, Black people have to learn the language of White people.

The white man always considers black man fully unhuman. There is no matter how much education they have or well they act. White people, feels fear of the black people as they viewed the black as mindless, violent or animal. White man thinks that they will take white women from them. Fanon says that he has only one duty and one right; he has a right to demand human behavior from the other. He has a duty that he never lets his decision renounce his freedom. Fanon cannot accept the fact that ever possible in France between white and black. Fanon is talking about behavior he says they have to need to be free from that obsession being black in the mental condition.

2)The woman of colour and the white man:

The second chapter is about the psychology behind the marriage between white men and black women . In this chapter Fanon talks about internalize racism.

According to Fanon, the acts of love and admiration are directly tied to who and what we value. And he gave reasons that why women of colour go after white men, putting down men of their own colour!

Fanon says,

“Authentic love …entails the mobilization of psychic drives basically freed of unconscious conflicts.”

In other words, he cannot seek to love unless he has rid himself, in this case, of his inferiority complex. Fanon explains that, these black women do not truly love white men but they just love their colour. They marry with them to deal with their own hang-ups about race. And it is because the black woman feels inferior.

The black woman wants to marry with white people because she wants to be “white” or superior. She thinks being a black woman she is inferior or she wants to be white because of white man’s skin, looks up to white people and looks down on black people. The vision and dream of black woman is towards the white to achieve forbidden values of being white.

Here Fanon takes as his examples three women: Mayotte of Martinique and Nini and Dedee of Senegal. Mayotte who wrote a book about her life and Nini and Dedee are characters from “Nini” a story by Abdoulaye Sadji. They are part white which makes them determined not to “slip back among the ‘nigger’ rabble.” The character Nini is a silly typist. A man who is and accountant with the waterways company, proposes marriage but in the end they have the police tell him to stop his “morbid insanities” because he is black and she is half white. He has offended her honor. Meanwhile another man with a good government job proposes to Dedee but this time it is a dream come true because he is white. Mayotte was entering the white world but a white man cannot make you white. Mayotte, the third woman, had an affair with a married

  This black woman does not truly love this white man but she loves his color. She goes with him not out of love but to deal with her own emotional problems about race. It is because the black woman feels inferior that she hopes to obtain admittance to the white world.

3)The man of color and the white woman:

 Fanon is a black psychiatrist from Martinique. He starts this chapter by saying of himself: I want to be recognized not as Black but as White. By loving me she proves to me that I am worthy of a white love. I am loved like a white man. I am a white man. Here Fanon gives the example of Jean Veneuse, the hero of an autobiographical novel by Rene Maran. Jean Veneuse came to France from the Caribbean when he was three or four. He lost his parents. He was brought up by boarding schools in France, the only black student in a sea of white. He has a lonely childhood. When the other students go home for the holidays, he is left alone at school. He grows up French and falls in love with a white woman. He wonders about his motives. May be it is simply because he was brought up European and so desires European women just like any other man in Europe. When he works in Africa as a civil servant he proves to be just as bad as the whites. May be it is not revenge that he wants but to separate himself from his race or even some how to become race less. 

 But here Fanon says that Veneuse’s troubles run much deeper. He was left alone in the world by his mother as a small boy. He is hung up on that. So he is afraid to love and be loved. He holds everyone at arm’s length, even the woman he wants to marry. Therefore we cannot take any general conclusions from Veneuse’s case.   

Conclusion:

Every black man and mulatto have only one thought to be like white to gratify their appetite for white woman, to marry white woman. They started denying their culture and woman and marry white girl, less for love than satisfying their ego and inferiority.so here we can see in these chapters that black people wants to be a white or wants to be superior like white people,but white people believes that they are evil or terrorist because their skin is black so how black people identify by their skin or color.so here fanon talks about white colonizers and the desire of black people.
