Following the National Front (FN) victory in which the obtained two local
councillors in elections to the Cantons, the Honorary President of this party
of the extreme right, Jean-Marie LePen, declared (according to the Libération
newspaper, which said he made his remarks on 27 March at 22 :11hrs)
Africa should rejoice this evening, it is the victory of the primates.
This statement was meant to be a sort of response to Claude Goasguen,
a Parisian MP, who on Tuesday is supposed to have called the FN
a “party of primates” (or, according to his version of the facts,
“a party of primaries [first rounds]”.
In the mind of the general public, primates are monkeys, animals.
To compare Africa – and so people of African descent - to primates
is evidently to bring up the good old racist and colonialist cliché according
to which such people are are supposed to be not quite human,
but something in between animals and “man” (a white man, of course).
In this view of the world, the fact that a human being is biologically
an animal and that primates are in fact an order of mammals,
which includes monkeys and lemurs but also human beings,
becomes either insignificant or is denied to the last gasp.
Now that the UMP of Jean- François Copé is engaged in an (unacknowledged)
policy of electoral collaboration with the FN, these remarks by Mr Le Pen
come just in time to remember the true nature of the party, which nowadays
is presided over by the smiling, and almost squeaky clean, Marine Le Pen.
As of this moment, TOTAL RESPECT and the NON À GUERLAIN Collective
intend to lodge a complaint against Mr LePen for incitement to racial hatred.
