Imperialism has now reached a degree of almost scientific perfection. it uses white workers to conquer the non-white workers of the colonies. then, it hurls the non-white workers of one colony against those of another non-white colony. finally, it relies on the colored workers of the colonies to rule the white workers. recently, white french soldiers near mutiny in the occupied ruhr of germany, were surrounded by french african soldiers, and colored native light-infantry were sent against white german strikers.

Thinking Faces Purpose
I've never seen a sincere white man, not when it comes to helping black people. usually things like this are done by white people to benefit themselves. the white man's primary interest is not to elevate the thinking of black people, or to waken black people, or white people either. the white man is interested in the black man only to the extent that the black man is of use to him. the white man's interest is to make money, to exploit.
