Revolutionary humanist and radical psychiatrist Frantz Fanon was one of the greatest Black thinkers of the twentieth century. Born in Martinique and known for his involvement in the Algerian liberation movement, his seminal books Black Skin, White Masks and The Wretched of the Earth are widely considered to be cornerstones of anti-colonial and anti-racist thought.
In this essential introduction to Fanon's remarkable life and philosophy, Nigel C. Gibson argues that Fanon's oeuvre is essential to thinking about race today. Connecting Fanon's writing, psychiatric practice, and lived experience in the Caribbean, France, and Africa, Gibson reveals (with startling clarity) his philosophical commitments and the vision of revolution that he stood for. Despite his untimely death, the revolutionary pulse of Fanon's ideas has continued to beat ever more strongly in the consciousness of successive revolutionary generations, from the Black Panthers and the Black Power to Black Lives Matter.
As Fanon's thought comes alive to new activists thinking about their mission to "humanize the world," Gibson reminds us that that Fanon's revolutionary humanism is fundamental to all forms of anti-colonial struggle, including our own.

"This book compels readers to step into 'the glare of history's floodlights.' Nigel Gibson expertly explores Fanon's philosophy of liberation and makes a riveting plea for us to listen to Fanon across the ages. Each generation can and should find its revolution 'no longer in future heaven,' but within their own collective consciousness."

"Gibson excavates Fanon like no other scholar. This book is a truly great read, and a masterful rendering of how and why Fanon keeps coming to life during revolutionary turning points in ever more diverse and comprehensive ways."
Lou Turner, co-author of Frantz Fanon, Soweto and Black American Thought
