[Back to the Decolonize to Liberate main Working Group page]

“Imperialism leaves behind germs of rot which we must clinically detect and remove from our land but from our minds as well.” - Frantz Fanon, philospher


“[We have to] rediscover our most intimate selves and rid ourselves of mental attitudes and complexes and habits that colonization … trapped us in for centuries.”-Patrice Lumumba, the first indigenous leader of the Republic of the Congo, called for mental decolonization in his speech to the 1960 Pan-African Congress.

On the Doctrine of Discovery

Five Hundred Years of Injustice: The Legacy of Fifteenth Century Religious Prejudice Origins of the Doctrine of Discovery 

Essay by Steve Newcomb
When Christopher Columbus first set foot on the white sands of Guanahani island, he performed a ceremony to "take possession" of the land for the king and queen of Spain, acting under the international laws of Western Christendom. Although the story of Columbus' "discovery" has taken on mythological proportions in most of the Western world, few people are aware that his act of "possession" was based on a religious doctrine now known in history as the Doctrine of Discovery. Even fewer people realize that today - five centuries later - the United States government still uses this archaic Judeo-Christian doctrine to deny the rights of Native American Indians.
