"The colonized man will first manifest this aggressiveness which has been deposited in his bones against his own people. This is the period when the nigg**rs beat each other up, and the police and magistrated dont know know which way to turn when faced with the astonishing waves of crimes in North Africa...While the settler or the policeman has the right the livelong day to strike the native, to insult him and to make him crawl to them, you will see the native reaching for his knife at the slightest hostile or aggressive glance cast on him by another native; for the last resort of the native is to defend his personality vis-a-vis his brother."

~ Frantz Fanon, "The Wretched of the Earth."

In many cases, the oppressor lives within the oppressed. So when the oppressed attacks or maligns a fellow oppressed soul, he subconsiously feels that he is indirectly attacking or maligning the oppressor.

The use of the N-word is a very good example of this.
