Abstract

there’s no effective therapy against racism. Where there is racism, there is an artificial condition the preserves the white privilege and the inferiority of the black people.  This condition works as a prophecy, maintaining alive the difference between privilege and subalternity, generation after generation. It sickens the blacks and only by overcoming it they will be able to lead a healthy life
