Frantz Fanon was one of the twentieth-century's most influential
theorists and activists, whose work fighting against colonialism
and imperialism has been an inspiration to today's decolonization
and anti-racism movements. As the author of essential texts such as
The Wretched of the Earth and Black Skin, White Masks, his impact
on today's activists - from Rhodes Must Fall to Black Lives Matter
- is indelible. Leo Zeilig here details the fascinating life of
Fanon - from his upbringing in Martinique to his wartime
experiences and work in Europe and North Africa - and frames his
ideas and activism within the greater context of his career as a
practising psychiatrist and his politically tumultuous
surroundings. The book covers the period of the Algerian War of
Independence, national liberation and what Fanon described as 'the
curse of independence'. Highlighting Fanon's role as the most
influential theorist of anti-colonialism and racial liberation,
this book is an essential read for those interested in the roots of
the modern day anti-racism and decolonization movements.
