Rediscovering Fanon from the Belly of the Beast: A Centennial Event Engaging the Life and Legacy of Frantz Fanon

avril 30 @ 18h00 - 19h30

Organized in collaboration with the Frantz Fanon Foundation, this event is honoring the life and legacy of Frantz Fanon. Fanon is one of the most influential figures in 20th-century anticolonial thought. His powerful analysis of the dynamics of race, colonialism and imperialism has inspired activists around the world. His ideas have influenced political struggles as well as academic fields such as philosophy, psychology, and decolonial thought. Fanon embodied a combative vision of decolonization, combining theory and action. This centenary is an opportunity to pay tribute to his revolutionary thought. To mark this 100th anniversary, we will host a screening of excerpts of the film « Rediscovering Fanon » along with a discussion with the director Rico Speight, Mireille Fanon Mendès-France and Rabab Abdulhadi.
