Hamza Hamouchene, CounterPunch
Frantz Fanon died a few months before Algeria’s independence
in July 1962. He did not live to see his adoptive country becoming free from
French colonial domination, something he believed had become inevitable. This
radical intellectual and revolutionary devoted himself, body and soul to the
Algerian National liberation and was a prism, through which many
revolutionaries abroad understood Algeria and one of the reasons the country
became synonymous with Third World revolution.
