Fanon Revisited (Race, Indigeneity and Anti-Colonial Studies)
This book is a continuing conversation on Frantz Fanon and the relevance of his theory and politics for contemporary education. The book raises some pertinent questions regarding the current “Fanon Renaissance” in academia. It maintains that Fanon’s intellectual contributions not only help us understand colonialism, on-going colonial relations, imperial power and social movements but also, how as learners, educators and community workers we can begin to think through the ‘possibility of a new possible’ in the struggle for human liberation.
