Recenzii

This century's most compelling theorist of racism and colonialism
Have the courage to read this book
Fanon details the impact of colonialism on the psyches of black people. For the first time, I was able to understand empire as more than just an economic phenomenon, and in turn how much Africa's decolonisation was expected to reverse. Reading it more than 50 years after publication was a visceral confrontation with a legacy that remains a shadow over black people
In clear language, in words that can only have been written in the cool heat of rage, he showed us the internal theatre of racism
The writing of Malcolm X or Eldridge Cleaver or Amiri Baraka or the Black Panther leaders reveals how profoundly they have been moved by the thoughts of Frantz Fanon
This is not so much a book as a rock thrown through the window of the West. It is theCommunist Manifestoof the anticolonial revolution, and as such it is highly important for any Western reader who wants to understand the emotional force behind that revolution
