50 Years Later: Fanon's Legacy and the Caribbean / Bahamas, College of the Bahamas
On
6 December 2011, 50 years will have passed since the death of Frantz
Fanon. Born in 1925 in the French colony of Martinique, Fanon's personal
experiences of everyday life under colonialism would yield two of the
most influential texts in anti-colonial revolutionary thought: Black Skin, White Masks (1952), and The Wretched of the Earth (1961).
Symposium Rationale
Frantz Fanon is today one of the most widely known and
influential Caribbean born theorists and revolutionary activists.
