"The Fact of Blackness" Fanon
My response to this article was an eye opener. After Fanon got away from the huge mind boggling words, I kind of felt for an extremely short second what it actually felt to be a black man. I myself am a unique mixture of races and I was fortunate to have grown up in such a way that I experienced my two main cultures vividly. I can laugh with George Lopez, and feel the pain, anguish, and laughter that are associated with a Mexican American heritage. The same goes for Larry the Cable Guy, I can laugh at what he says in his stand comedy routine, because I can relate with my Anglo culture. Going back to how Fanon explains his anguish of being labeled, it's understandable, I've been there, but unlike Fanon, I learned to how to run with racial comments. However, I'm not black and cannot relate to his culture, or how bad for his time it must have been for an average black male.
I start with saying blah. I cannot in my mind imagine what it was for Fanon......
