Black Skin, White Masks

Resumen del libro

Black Skin, White Masks is the classic, devastating account of the dehumanising effects of colonisation experienced by black subjects living in the white world. With beautiful, angry prose, Frantz Fanon provides an unsurpassed study of the psychology of racism using scientific analysis and poetic grace. Fanon's writings have been read and emulated by black radical thinkers - from Malcolm X to Eldridge Cleaver, and movements from the Black Panther Party to Black Lives Matter. First published in English in 1967, remains the cornerstone to our understanding of the formation of modern black identity and its revolutionary consciousness. This new edition will bring Fanon's writing to a new, wider readership. This stunning new edition includes a new introduction by Paul Gilroy.
