In Frantz Fanon and Emancipatory Social Theory: A View from the
Wretched, Dustin J. Byrd and Seyed Javad Miri bring together a
collection of essays by a variety of scholars who explore the
lasting influence of Frantz Fanon, renowned psychiatrist,
revolutionary, and social theorist. Fanon 's work not only gave
voice to the "wretched" in the Algerian War of Independence
(1954-1962), but also shaped the radical resistance to colonialism,
empire, and racism throughout much of the world. His seminal works,
such as Black Skin, White Masks, and The Wretched of the Earth,
were read by The Black Panther Party in the United States,
anti-imperialists in Africa and Asia, and anti-monarchist
revolutionaries in the Middle East. Today, many revolutionaries and
scholars have returned to Fanon 's work, as it continues to shed
light on the nature of colonial domination, racism, and class
oppression. Contributors include: Syed Farid Alatas, Rose Brewer,
Dustin J. Byrd, Sean Chabot, Richard Curtis, Nigel C. Gibson, Ali
Harfouch, Timothy Kerswell, Seyed Javad Miri, Mumia Abu-Jamal,
Pramod K. Nayar, Elena Flores Ruíz, Majid Sharifi, Mohamed Imran
Mohamed Taib and Esmaeil Zeiny.
