Rediscovering Fanon
Frantz Omar Fanon (1925-1961) – Reformist psychiatrist? Pan African philosopher? Radical polemicist? Purveyor of violence? Who was this man? Why have his ideas, first pronounced in the 1950’s and sixties, continued to instigate controversy and stir the hearts of progressives decades after his death? Rediscovering Fanon will reveal the man behind the legend and analyze the relevance of his prolific theories in a globalized “post-racial” millennium.
