I am delighted to announce the launch of two book series dedicated to path-breaking work in the areas of Caribbean philosophy, creolization, and political theory. These are one result of an intellectual collaboration between Roman & Littlefield International and the Caribbean Philosophical Association (CPA), of which I serve as Chair of Publishing Partnerships.

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.
