US premiere

The documentary retells the all-too short life trajectory of Fanon (1925-1961), the Martinican psychiatrist whose militant actions and radical revolutionary thinking engaged the fundamental issues of racialized oppression around the world, moving from theorizations of blackness to colonialism, anti-colonial struggle, and decolonization.

Co-sponsored by the Center for Latin American and Caribbean Studies
