27). Fanon favored the role of class and race in his efforts to achieve equality, yet postulated that "white man" would not accept these misaligned terms. He believed that violence against the colonizer was the sole solution for national liberation. Unlike Ghandi, Marxist theories greatly influenced Fanon's idea of the alienation of the black man. Fanon draws many comparisons to Marx's concept of the alienation of the proletariat as exploited by the bourgeoisie as the French exploited the Algerians. Fanon contented that white colonizers capture and manipulate the land to form a predominantly white society in attempt to scorch out any culture from the black nation. Fanon strongly believed that in order to capture and rule over the natives, colonizers used physical and psychological violence. This resulted in a loss of spiritual composure and cultural integrity that he desired the black community to regain. To repossess their culture and society, the indigenous people must use violence to reoccupy and recognize their land. Natives would need to exercise their "tensed muscle" and take back what was theirs. Fanon expected all the anger accumulated would be used against the colonizer, therefore relieving that "tense muscle." .
Once such ideas took hold, black men began to "sharpen their weapons to secure its victory" (Fanon, p.8). The scorning of the white man no longer influenced the black man's perspective on himself. Instead, new insight prompted the natives to violently rise up against the Europeans as they achieved in Algeria. Aimé Césaire, an author and politician from Martinique who is part of the communist party, although quite similar, Césaire took a slightly different approach than Fanon. Césaire became known as one of the founders of the negritude movement. He began to construct an appreciation of African culture values to compensate for European supremacy that quickly swept across African colonies.
