Episode 5 | The thinking of Fanon
The author of Black skin, white masks and The wretched of the earth, Frantz Fanon (1925-1961) was an influential anticolonialist writer from Martinique. The documentary was created with the mission of reestablishing to academic and artistic discourse the acknowledgement of the originality of Fanon’s contradictory nature as a thinker.
