Colonizing powers use language to fix the meaning of the colonized “Other.” how do colonizing powers use texts—the written word—to simplify complex civilizations, to erase the existence of a rich cultural heritage, and to deny the humanity of a population as part of the effort to legitimate the subjugation of those nations they seek to control? Such efforts demand that a population be torn from its history in order to create a new future—a future literally written by the West. Colonization is premised on the notion that the colonized Other is inherently inferior, weak, and evil. For colonized groups, or those who have won political independence from colonial rule, the question remains as to how they can shed their identity as an inferior Other.
