| Jean Paul Sartre and Frantz Fanon |
“Make people ashamed of their existence.” Make them “face the world.”
“But to what does this shame amount? What is shame’s sociogenesis, especially in situations of colonial or racial violence? To what extent is the feeling revolutionary? How does it provide the means to solidarity?”
Marx: “Shame is a kind of anger turned in on itself. And if a whole nation were to feel ashamed it would be like a lion recoiling in order to spring.”
