Podcasts about Fanon

The Fanon crew is heading deep into the Russian metro to discuss Metro 2033 and the fears of what lies in the dark.

Dekolonisierung - Kaum einer steht mehr für dieses Wort als Frantz Fanon. Der Psychiater, Vordenker und anti-koloniale Kämpfer wäre am 20. Juli 2025 100 Jahre alt geworden. Welche Bedeutung haben seine Analysen für unsere Kultur und die Gesellschaft heute? Und was können wir von Fanon lernen? Das erklären die Organisator:innen der „100 Years Fanon!“-Konferenz an der Frankfurter Goethe Universität, Aktivist:innen von „Hands off Africa Frankfurt“ und die Macher:innen eines dekolonialen Theaters. Eine Sendung von Tim-Tih Kost. (Foto: Imago)

Before Dandelion. Before Ciri. Before Blaviken and Brokilon and baths with Yennefer. Before Geralt found himself following destiny and doing all the impressive things for which he's known, he was a fresh-faced teen stumbling through life, making poor decisions and hanging with people of questionable reputation. (Guess which version we find ourselves relating to!) “Crossroads of Ravens” is the new Witcher novel by author Andrzej Sapkowski that focuses on Geralt's first year on the path. In this first of two episodes discussing the book, we uncap a bottle of Early Times Bottled-in-Bond Bourbon before engaging in a fairly spoiler-free conversation on important literary topics like Geralt getting his first leather jacket, possibly getting his v-card punched and whether the second time's the charm when it comes to fighting strigas. Or would that be the first…? Prequels are confusing, guys!

We're saying goodbye to Sigismund Dijkstra the best way we know how—with a bottle of actor Graham McTavish's very own whiskey and a lively discussion of his final Season 4 episode! Over glasses of The Warchief Bottled-in-Bond Bourbon by McTavish Spirits, we consider whether the conniving spymaster may have finally been outplayed…and whether the hopes and dreams of Radskier shippers have been crushed in the process. Plus, Valerie wants to see the receipts when it comes to Francesca's claims, Tim can't tell his Vesemirs from his Vizimirs and we both think Mistle and Ciri REALLY need to work on their pet names. Give it a listen…FOR REDANIA!

In this installment of our African Revolutions and Decolonization series, we host a critically important deep dive into Fanon's life and work with Professor Lou Turner!  With 2025 being the 100th anniversary of Fanon's birth, there is no better time for this discussion than now.  We really found the conversation a rich one, and are sure you will learn a lot from it.  Help us out by sharing it!

En mild borgerlig intellektuell psykiatriker och en militant ideolog som glorifierade revolutionära bönder. Farshid Jalalvand funderar över Frantz Fanons motsägelser. Lyssna på alla avsnitt i Sveriges Radios app. ESSÄ: Detta är en text där skribenten reflekterar över ett ämne eller ett verk. Åsikter som uttrycks är skribentens egna.Det är ramadan i maj 1955 i Algeriet, och Frantz Fanon, överläkare i psykiatri vid Blida-Joinville-sjukhuset. sitter i sin bil och tänder en cigarett. Samtidigt som han drar sitt första bloss märker han hur en okänd man närmar sig bilen. ”Släck ciggen om du inte vill få allvarliga problem”, varnar främlingen på arabiska. Den algeriska självständighetsrörelsen FLN hade nyligen uppmanat till bojkott av tobaksvaror producerade i kolonialmakten Frankrike. Den som bröt mot det riskerade att få näsan avskuren – eller något ännu värre.Man skulle kunna tro att en sådan brysk tillrättavisning skulle uppfattas som hotfull eller kränkande. Men för Fanon, en kulturellt fransk västindisk läkare som hade sökt sig till Algeriet på grund av bristande karriärmöjligheter i Frankrike, blev den istället en livsomvälvande positiv vändpunkt. Den främmande mannen hade misstagit den svarte Fanon för en av sina – det var nämligen bara algerier som omfattades av cigarettförbudet. För en vän berättade han senare: ”Jag kände att jag hade blivit tilltalad som en av de egna”. För en person som under hela sitt vuxna liv hade känt sig alienerad från samhället blev detta inlemmande i en gemenskap ett huvudskäl till att han strax därefter anslöt sig till den algeriska självständighetsrörelsen.Det är otroligt vad den Andres blick kan göra med en.Frantz Fanon var född och uppvuxen i en välbärgad borgerlig familj i den franska kolonin Martinique. Under andra världskriget for den unge idealisten över Atlanten och anslöt han sig som volontär till den franska befrielsearmén för att kämpa mot nazisterna. Han blev allvarligt sårad i strid, mottog medalj för uppvisat mod, och fick som belöning för sin krigstjänstgöring studera valfri utbildning i Frankrike efter kriget. Han bestämde sig för att plugga till läkare vid det framstående universitetet i Lyon. Men studietiden blev inte som förväntad. Den inskränkthet och rasism han mötte i Frankrike utgjorde bakgrund till hans klassiska studie i rasismens psykologi – ”Svart hud, vita masker”. Ett av flera tongivande verk han författade under sitt korta men händelsefulla liv, innan han dog i leukemi, bara 36 år gammal.Det mest inflytelserika av dessa verk – ”Jordens fördömda”, med förord av Sartre – är ett stridsrop för de koloniserades väpnade kamp mot kolonialmakter världen över. Boken färdigställdes i exil i Tunis, delvis genom diktamen av den svårt cancersjuke Fanon. Då hade han sedan länge tvingats lämna Algeriet, efter att ha kritiserat kolonialmaktens förtryck av araber och berber. Han hade blivit FLN:s internationella talesperson och redaktör för rörelsens tidning. Hans liv kan på många sätt betraktas som en serie av motsägelser: den milda psykiatrikern som var en militant ideolog, den karibiske fransmannen som blev en talesperson för en arabisk revolutionär rörelse, den borgerliga intellektuelle som framförallt glorifierade revolutionära bönder.Men det är en annan motsägelse jag fastnar för. Eller kanske ingen motsägelse, men en händelse som kan ses som den raka motsatsen till incidenten med cigaretten, men som på samma sätt kom att prägla honom i grunden.William Shatz berättar i biografin ”The Rebels Clinic” hur Fanon som ung läkarstudent blev utpekad av en liten, vit pojke på tåget i Lyon. “Titta mamma, en négre. Mamma, mamma, le négre kommer att äta upp mig!” Pojken – genomsyrad av alla de koloniala fördomarna om vilda kannibaler – skakade av rädsla. Fanon skrev om händelsen i ”Svart hud, vita masker”: “Jag fick tillbaka min kropp utfläkt, sönderdelad […] All denna vithet som förbränner mig. Jag slår mig ner vid elden och upptäcker min hud. Jag hade inte sett den förut.” När barnets mamma försökte släta över situationen genom att högt säga “titta vilken vacker négre”, svarade Fanon trotsigt: “den vackra négren ber er dra åt helvete, madame!” För någon som längtade efter att bli sedd som en medborgare bland andra, blev den tvångsmässiga fixeringen vid hans hud ett ständigt blödande sår; beviset på att han aldrig skulle kunna undfly stigmat av sin pigmentering.Jean Paul Sartre, en av Fanons främsta inspirationskällor, hade tidigare skrivit om hur juden först blir varse sin judenhet – i bemärkelsen något negativt utmärkande – i mötet med antisemiten. Simone de Beauvoir hade skrivit de kända orden: “man föds inte till kvinna, man blir det”. Nu kunde Fanon addera den koloniala upplevelsen till existentialismens teoribygge: Den svarta människan, berövad sin mänsklighet och individualitet, blir först “svart” i mötet med den icke-svarta blicken, reducerad till en ansiktslös medlem av en flock vildar.Ett sätt att sammanfatta dessa betraktelser är att ens identitet skapas i förhållande till den Andre.Vem är algerier? Vem är svart? Vem är kvinna? Vem är svensk?Om vi ska tro existentialisterna handlar inte identitet om hur någon känner sig inombords, utan om hur hon blir sedd av andra. Individen står maktlös inför sin egen identitet, och i förlängningen därmed sin egen plats på jorden. Det är en fruktansvärd sanning. En sanning som lägger ett stort ansvar på oss som medmänniskor.Idén har sitt ursprung i Hegels herre-slav-dialektik. I “Andens fenomenologi” skriver den tyska filosofen att ett självmedvetande endast uppstår i relation till ett annat. När två medvetande möts uppstår en maktkamp, där den ena till slut blir herre och den andra slav. Eftersom det är bättre att vara något än inget, finner sig slaven i uppgörelsen. Herren och slaven ställs i en ömsesidig beroenderelation – de behöver varandras blickar för att på ett plan ens existera.Det är en mer fundamental form av alienering än vad man finner i den mer social- och samhällstillvända filosofin hos Sartre, de Beauvoir och Fanon. Men vår beroendeställning till den Andres blick är intakt.”Helvetet, det är de andra”, som det konstateras i en av Sartres pjäser.För det är en blick som kan fläka sönder, bränna och förringa, som i fallet med pojken på tåget. Men det är också en blick som kan lyfta, stärka och inkludera som i berättelsen om den varnande algeriern. Både alienation – och dess ljuva motsats, gemenskap – är relationella fenomen. Alla blir vi till genom hur vi ses i kärleksrelationer, hur vi uppfattas av våra närstående, och hur vi blir betraktade i offentligheten.Existentialisternas idéer om individens ansvar har sedan länge sprungits om av strukturalistiska och poststrukturalistiska förklaringsmodeller. Men det finns i min mening all anledning att återvända till dem. En välvillig blick är förvisso det första steget även i en strukturell förvandling. Men ännu viktigare: Varje människa har – genom sin blick – makt, och därmed ett moraliskt ansvar. Hur vi väljer att använda det kan förändra ett liv, en plats, en värld.Farshid Jalalvandmikrobiolog, skribent och författareLitteraturAdam Shatz: The Rebel's Clinic: The Revolutionary Lives of Frantz Fanon.

In this discussion of Season 4's third episode, we somberly discuss the tragic death of—um, who? Beata? Who the heck is Beata? Sadly, the young refugee was struck down just as we were getting to know…well, pretty much anything about her. But that's okay, we have plenty of other things to discuss over our bottle of Hye-Land 12-Year Single Malt Armenian Whiskey. Like how Regis is clearly just a regular, ordinary human that just happens to have remarkable pain tolerance. And how wearing a bra on the outside of your dress may actually be quite practical. And how you really should aspire to do more with your magical abilities than to be turned into portal goo. But mostly how disappointed we were that Geralt of Rawvia and Yennefer of Bangerberg didn't actually use that unicorn they had on stage. But hey, we DID get the debut of Leo Bonhart, who mercilessly took the life of—wait, what was that Witcher's name again?

It's been 20 years of Youmacon and five years of Fanon appearances, have they finally turned things around? Sergio and Kai are here to determine exactly that in our new convention recap.Check out our links: linktr.ee/sytycfanon

A 15ª edição da Flup, a Festa Literária das Periferias, foi inaugurada esta semana sob o Viaduto de Madureira, zona norte do Rio de Janeiro, como parte da temporada da França no Brasil 2025. Com o tema “Ideias para reencantar o mundo”, o evento reúne artistas, autores e pensadores da diáspora negra do Brasil, África, Caribe, América do Norte e Europa. Madureira, território e epicentro simbólico da resistência negra carioca, tornou-se palco de um encontro de celebração e manifesto político. Marcia Bechara, enviada especial da RFI ao Rio de Janeiro A Flup 2025 escolheu Madureira como território catalisador das diásporas negras decoloniais. Julio Ludemir, diretor e idealizador do festival, explicou que “o local é uma encruzilhada do comércio, uma encruzilhada de vários pontos de vista, inclusive do ponto de vista exusístico”, numa referência a Exu, orixá do movimento e da comunicação no Candomblé, responsável por abrir caminhos e conectar humanos aos deuses do panteão africano. Para ele, o bairro de Madureira, na zona norte do Rio, é mais que geográfico: é espiritual e cultural. “Todas as dores do mundo são afastadas quando você pode vir a um lugar onde está no campo dos iguais, no campo do espelho”, disse. Ludemir ressaltou que o icônico Viaduto de Madureira concentra “todos os códigos do Rio de Janeiro: o samba, o jongo, o candomblé”, além do Baile Charme que há mais de três décadas ocupa o viaduto e se tornou patrimônio da resistência negra. “É por isso que estamos aqui: porque Madureira, agora, é o centro do mundo”, concluiu. O Baile Charme do Viaduto de Madureira é um polo simbólico da cultura negra e periférica carioca, surgido no início dos anos 1990, que se tornou Patrimônio Cultural Imaterial da cidade graças à sua relevância como espaço de resistência, identidade e ascensão para a juventude da Zona Norte. Ao longo dos anos, já passaram por lá grandes nomes da música nacional e internacional como Keith Sweat, Montell Jordan, Sandra de Sá, Negra Li e Racionais MCs. Este ano, os músicos confirmados na programação são Jonathan Ferr, Mano Brown, Majur, Luedji Luna, Sandra de Sá e Mart'nália. Herança de Fanon A mesa de abertura trouxe a presença de Mireille Fanon, renomada jurista e ativista antirracismo, filha de Frantz Fanon — o influente psiquiatra, filósofo e teórico da decolonização, autor de obras fundamentais como Pele Negra, Máscaras Brancas e Os Condenados da Terra. Mireille preside a Fundação Frantz Fanon e dá continuidade à luta de seu pai contra o racismo, a alienação e a desigualdade mundial, entre outros combates. Sua participação na Flup 2025 foi marcada como momento simbólico e estratégico, reforçando a conexão viva entre o legado anticolonial e os debates contemporâneos sobre justiça social e solidariedade transnacional. Em sua fala, ela insistiu que “se queremos mudar o mundo, isso só pode acontecer de maneira coletiva”. Fanon criticou o sistema capitalista por "condicionar as pessoas a pensar apenas no bem-estar individual", quando a prioridade deveria ser o "bem-estar coletivo da humanidade". “Essa transformação depende de um empenho horizontal, não hierárquico: um trabalho de base, sem heróis salvadores vindos de cima”, afirmou. Para Mireille, as lutas atuais — de Gaza ao Haiti, do Chile à África — não são crises isoladas, mas parte de uma lógica global de exploração que precisa ser enfrentada coletivamente. Sobre a mitificação das figuras históricas, entre elas seu pai, Frantz Fanon, Mireille critica a forma como o sistema transforma seus “grandes homens e grandes mulheres” em heróis neutros, para "não ameaçar a ordem vigente": "preferem fazer de nossos grandes homens… heróis, de forma a neutralizá-los". Mireille afirmou que há uma estratégia deliberada de "neutralização": "ao fazer dessas figuras modelos heroicos, o sistema as cooptam, evitando que suas lutas inspirem outros a lutar coletivamente". Mas para ela, o objetivo é outro: que a luta dessas mulheres e homens seja "exemplo vivo, uma prova de que podemos sonhar e construir uma política de liberdade por meio da solidariedade, não apenas pela figura de um salvador". Literatura como direito Durante a mesa de abertura, a escritora Conceição Evaristo, primeira autora viva a ser homenageada pela Flup em sua 15ª edição, falou sobre o legado que deseja deixar às próximas gerações. “A mensagem que eu deixaria é pensar a literatura como direito, como direito cidadão”, declarou. Para ela, é fundamental “pensar a escrita como direito” e incentivar que jovens escritoras periféricas se conectem umas com as outras, “perceber o aspecto coletivo das nossas histórias sem anular a individualidade”. Conceição concluiu com um chamado: “Que formem grupos, que se aquilombem em torno da literatura”. Conceição Evaristo, primeira autora viva homenageada pela Flup. Entre a força simbólica de Madureira, o chamado ao combate coletivo de Mireille Fanon e o legado literário de Conceição Evaristo, a Flup 2025 reafirma sua vocação como espaço de resistência e memória. O tema “Ideias para reencantar o mundo” ganha densidade ao se conectar com a diáspora negra em múltiplos continentes, propondo que o reencantamento "não seja apenas poético, mas político". É "romper com a lógica individualista, valorizar histórias coletivas", pontuou Mireille Fanon.  Como lembrou Julio Ludemir, “Madureira [durante a Flup 2025] é o centro do mundo”. Para Mireille Fanon, “se queremos mudar o planeta, isso só pode acontecer de maneira coletiva”. “A literatura é direito, é cidadania, é aquilombamento”, concluiu Conceição Evaristo. A programação da 15ª edição da Festa Literária das Periferias vai até o dia 30 de novembro no Rio de Janeiro.

What's better than getting a chance to meet a Witcher author? How about meeting two? When Whiskey with Witcher Special Correspondent Rebekah Rodriguez-Lynn heard that Andrzej Sapkowski and Joey Batey—whose debut novel, “It's Not a Cult,” was just released in the UK—were both embarking on book tours at the same time, she couldn't resist a trip overseas. And we couldn't resist having her on the podcast to tell us all about it! What was it like meeting and hanging out with Batey's fans? How does he balance acting, writing and performing with his band? And is Sapkowski really as crotchety as people seem to think? Plus, Rebekah reveals what the Witcher creator thinks about the book's English translation, why he doesn't have favorite characters and whether “Crossroads of Ravens” is likely to be the last Witcher novel. The answers just might surprise you!

Season 4's sophomore episode features some thieving Rats, a wandering Yen and a totally normal, not at all strange barber surgeon named Regis. Played by a scene-stealing Laurence Fishburne, Regis is also a home distiller and the reason we sought out a bottle of the gothic af Von Payne Black Blended Whiskey to pair this one with. (The fact that it also looks a little bit like blood is just a coincidence, we swear.) While we both agree that the newest member of Geralt's hansa is a delight, we're not at all aligned when it comes to choosing our favorite member of the Rats, deciding whether someone should give Jaskier a sword and counting up this week's “Hmms.” But we're still both very confused about what's going on with Geralt's pants, so at least there's that.

What's up true believers? On this episode we're tackling the body horror of The Immortal Hulk.

In this episode of Psyche Podcast, I sit down with philosopher and Lacanian theorist Todd McGowan for a deep exploration of Frantz Fanon's engagement with G.W.F. Hegel. Together, we unpack how Black Skin, White Masksreimagines Hegel's master–slave dialectic through the lens of colonialism, race, and psychic struggle.Todd explains how thinkers like Alexandre Kojève shaped the 20th-century obsession with recognition and how Fanon both inherits and critiques that legacy. We explore Fanon's bold claim that freedom must be won through struggle, not simply mutual understanding—and how his universalism sets him apart from later postcolonial and identity-based readings.Our conversation also moves into psychoanalysis, examining Fanon's dialogue with Freud and Lacan, his implicit engagement with the death drive, and his view of colonialism as a system driven by disavowed self-destruction. We also touch on Fanon's reflections on violence, alienation, and the tension between theory and political action.This is a wide-ranging discussion about freedom, universality, and the cost of liberation, and why Fanon's work still speaks urgently to our moment.

In this solo episode, I explore what Erich Fromm and Frantz Fanon can teach us about suffering, freedom, and what it means to be human. I'm not speaking as a scholar — I'm speaking as a psychotherapist who sits with real people in real pain every day. This is my humble, subjective take on how their ideas show up in the therapy room.I look at how both thinkers believed our struggles aren't just personal — they're shaped by the world we live in. Fromm leans toward love, boundaries, and humanistic change; Fanon toward rupture, fire, and reclaiming dignity through action. I also reflect on our tendency to idealize intellectual heroes instead of learning to think for ourselves.If you're curious about the intersection of mental health, meaning, and the social world we're all trying to survive, this conversation is for you.

Season 4 has finally arrived and we're welcoming it back in grand style with this look at its first episode—the good (hello, Liam…), the bad (…and Nimue…), and the WTF (…uh, Keira?!?). Over a bottle of Starward Two-Fold, Tim proudly redeclares his love for Milva, while Valerie finds much to appreciate in new character Stefan Skellen…even if she keeps getting him mixed up with Stellan Skarsgård. We also debate the merits of blood splatters, get to the bottom of Yen's portaling problem and settle the question about which actor looks better in Geralt's wig. Plus, we bring back our “hmm” count, elaborate on some book differences and shoot some terrible banana liqueur that haunts our nightmares to this day. In short, it's a truly generous pour of an episode…and we're just getting started! Hold music: "Local Forecast - Slower" by Kevin MacLeod

In this episode, I talk with Tyrique Mack-Georges, a PhD student in philosophy at Penn State, about the deep connections between Frantz Fanon and Jean-Paul Sartre. We explore how both thinkers help us understand the systemic nature of racism, the power of language in maintaining or challenging colonial systems, and Fanon's vision of a new humanism.Tyrique shares how his Caribbean background shapes his philosophical journey and how Fanon reworked Sartre's existentialism to illuminate what it means to become fully human in a world structured by domination.

Retour aux sources pour Nomen, petit frère du grand podcast et média Baleine sous Gravillon, avec une nouvelle saison sous le signe des cétacés !Une fois par mois durant cette cinquième saison, Marc et Pierre vous racontent les étymologies extraordinaires associées à nos immenses cousins aquatiques.Dans cet épisode, Marc et Pierre nous éclairent sur l'étymologie des noms des deux grands groupes de cétacés : les Mysticètes et les Odontocètes. Si "odonto-" vient de "dents" et se rapporte donc aux cétacés aux mâchoires acérées, "mysticètes" désigne les cétacés à fanons, car ces immenses peignes à krill évoqueraient une "moustache" (en grec ancien, "mustax" signifie "lèvre supérieure") !En complément de cet épisode de Nomen, voici le premier volet de la série Tout un Art, dédié à la figure de la Baleine dans l'Art._______

In this solo episode, I explore Frantz Fanon's ambivalence toward religion—how he wrestled with the sacred, the modern, and the so-called “primitive.” Drawing on Federico Settler's thought-provoking essay, I reflect on Fanon's complex relationship with Catholicism, Islam, and indigenous spirituality, and how those tensions shaped his vision of liberation and the “new man.”I'm also excited to share some of the conversations coming up on the podcast, including Tyrique Mack-Georges on Fanon and Sartre, Todd McGowan on Fanon and Hegel, Donovan Miyasaki on Fanon and Nietzsche, and Matthew Beaumont on Fanon and Reich. I'm hoping to keep expanding this exploration—into Fanon's engagement with Manichaeism, his possible connections to Alfred Adler, Simone de Beauvoir, and others who helped shape his revolutionary psychology.

The following preview episode has been approved for drunken audiences. Yes, we're back, Witcher fans, and just in time for the debut of The Witcher's fourth season! But before we get into the episodes, we're filling our glasses and offering up some thoughts, opinions and sassy speculation on just what may await us. With Liam Hemsworth as our new Geralt and Laurence Fishburne vamping it up as Regis, there's much to be excited about…and perhaps a few reasons for concern. We discuss both as we break down the season four trailer, zoom in on some recent key art (fix your hair, Ciri!) and discuss why sometimes a typo is just a typo. Plus, we explain our plan—or what passes for one around here—for our new podcast season. We're hoping it's our best one yet, so make sure you're subscribed and that your bar's fully stocked because you won't want to miss a second of it!

This episode was previously recorded with by friends Decolonized Buffalo and Plants Fanon, and shared with us to share with you. I'm really excited to share and house it here on the The Radicle Narrative.In this episode , they sat down with Dr. Lwazi Lushaba and Dr. Ziyana Lategan Political Scientists from the University of Cape Town to talk about modernity, Marxism, liberation, and the ongoing work of decolonization I wanted to bring it forward into our future conversations, where we can continue building on these ideas and deepening the dialogue….Listen wherever you get your podcasts…

In this episode of the Psyche Podcast, I sit down with Dr. Peter Hudis for a rich and energizing conversation on the life, thought, and legacy of Frantz Fanon. As I mention at the start of our discussion, Peter's book Frantz Fanon: Philosopher of the Barricades has been one of the most accessible and illuminating introductions to Fanon I've ever encountered. If you've wanted to understand Fanon beyond the buzzwords—this is the place to begin.Together, we explore the philosophical influences that shaped Fanon's thinking, from the Negritude movement and Sartre to Merleau-Ponty, Hegel, and beyond. Peter shares fascinating stories about Fanon's early exposure to philosophy in Martinique, his evolution as a revolutionary thinker, and the ways he transformed the ideas he inherited rather than simply repeating them. We also discuss Fanon's commitment to a new humanism—one rooted in mutual recognition, dignity, liberation, and social transformation.Whether you're new to Fanon or have been journeying with his ideas for years, this episode offers both depth and accessibility. I left the conversation energized, challenged, and more convinced than ever that Fanon's work remains essential for thinking about race, liberation, and humanity today.Tune in, reflect with us, and see what new connections emerge for you as we revisit Fanon's enduring legacy through the eyes of a leading scholar.

What's behind the reductive pursuit of “paradise” in travel to the Caribbean? How does tourism continue the legacy of colonialism? And how is this being resisted? We're joined by Angelique Nixon, a scholar and activist at The University of the West Indies at St. Augustine, whose book “Resisting Paradise” examined how tourism shapes Caribbean life and identity, including via deep-rooted notions of “paradise” grounded in colonialism and exploitation. Angelique describes how the Caribbean, a region of such diverse islands, has been constructed a site for the fulfilment of particular desires, while other forms of desire have been suppressed in mainstream narratives. Angelique joins us to discuss this, as well as her new project, “Submerged Freedom”.Plus: Angelique reflects on writing as a “black sexual intellectual”, and describes how Franz Fanon led her to reflect on tourism as “the stagnation of decolonisation” – as reproducing and reinforcing existing racialised inequalities. Also, we celebrate thinkers including the sociologist Kamala Kempadoo, authors Edwidge Danticat, Jamaica Kincaid and Erna Brodber. And we profile the radical Caribbean philosopher Sylvia Wynter, whose work challenged the assumptions of western liberal humanism and highlighted the importance of working on ourselves as part of decolonial work.Guest: Angelique Nixon; Host: Rosie Hancock; Executive Producer: Alice Bloch; Sound Engineer: David Crackles; Music: Joe Gardner; Artwork: Erin AnikerFind more about Uncommon SenseEpisode ResourcesBy Angelique NixonResisting Paradise (2015)On Being a Black Sexual Intellectual (2019)Angelique's academic profile, including information on her latest project, “Submerged Freedom”CAISO – feminist non-profit civil society organisation committed to ensuring wholeness, justice and inclusion for Trinidad and Tobago's LGBTQI+ communitiesFrom the Sociological Review FoundationUncommon Sense episodes on: Europeans, with Manuela Boatcă (2023) and Margins, with Rhoda Reddock (2024)Len Garrison: Archives and Self-Esteem – audio essay by Hannah Ishmael (2025)Further resources“Island Futures” – Mimi Shiller“An Eye for the Tropics” – Krista Thompson“Sexing the Caribbean” – Kamala Kempadoo“Paradise and Plantation” – Ian Strachan“The Repeating Island” – Antonio Benítez-Rojo“The Wretched of the Earth” – Franz Fanon“After The Dance” – Edwidge Danticat“A Small Place” – Jamaica KincaidSylvia Wynter: Beyond Man – short introductory video by Al JazeeraSupport our work.

In this episode of Psyche Podcast, I sit down with Daniel José Gaztambide to talk about his brilliant new book Decolonizing Psychoanalytic Technique: Putting Freud on Fanon's Couch. This was one of my favorite conversations to date — part intellectual exploration, part personal exchange, and entirely alive with the spirit of Fanon's revolutionary thought.Daniel and I trace the roots of his work back to his childhood in Puerto Rico, his experiences growing up in a psychologically attuned church, and his journey through psychoanalytic and liberation psychology training. We talk about what it means to read Freud through Fanon — how psychoanalysis itself must be decolonized to reckon with the realities of race, class, and power.From Freud's Civilization and Its Discontents to Fanon's psychiatric innovations in Blida, Daniel unpacks the political and clinical stakes of psychotherapy today — including the idea of intersectional suffering and how our personal struggles are shaped by larger systems of racial capitalism and patriarchy.This episode is full of warmth, humor, and deep insight. Daniel's passion for both clinical practice and social transformation really shines through, and I can't wait for listeners to hear how Fanon's legacy continues to challenge and inspire the next generation of therapists and thinkers.

In this solo episode, I dive into the electrifying intersection between Zeal & Ardor's genre-bending music and Frantz Fanon's revolutionary psychology of liberation.I trace the origins of Zeal & Ardor — from Manuel Gagneux's provocative “what-if” experiment blending slave spirituals and black metal — to their evolution into a powerful exploration of history, rage, and rebirth. Through Fanon's lens, this fusion becomes more than music: it's a sonic revolt, a reimagining of how trauma, faith, and resistance can transform into new cultural life.Along the way, I unpack Fanon's ideas about the “white mask,” violence as catharsis, and the creation of a new humanism, showing how Zeal & Ardor's sound captures the psychic energy of decolonization.This episode is part cultural analysis, part therapy session, and part love letter to the power of art to rework our deepest wounds.

In this episode of Psyche Podcast, I sit down with Dr. Sinan Richards to explore his brilliant article “The Logician of Madness: Fanon's Lacan.” Our conversation dives into the deep intellectual currents connecting Frantz Fanon and Jacques Lacan—two thinkers often treated as distant but who, as Sinan argues, share a surprisingly intimate lineage.We trace Fanon's early psychiatric influences at Saint-Alban under François Tosquelles, the Catalan psychiatrist whose fusion of psychoanalysis, surrealism, and social activism helped form the basis for institutional psychotherapy. From there, we follow how Tosquelles' reading of Lacan's fertile moments of delirium and psychogenesis evolved into Fanon's own radical idea of sociogenesis—the notion that the colonial order itself produces mental illness.Sinan also illuminates the feedback loop between these two towering figures: how Lacan's early emphasis on the social helped shape Fanon's thought, and how Fanon, in turn, may have anticipated the late Lacanian critique of the symbolic order as a kind of psychic prison. Together, we discuss language, desire, and disalienation—how the colonized subject's struggle to speak and dream in a colonizer's tongue exposes both the political and psychic dimensions of liberation.Along the way, Sinan shares vivid stories—like Tosquelles and his patients hand-binding copies of Lacan's thesis and selling them in the village market—and we reflect on Fanon's enduring insight that things cannot go on as they are.This conversation is for anyone drawn to psychoanalysis, decolonial thought, and the places where philosophy meets political action.

Frantz Fanon, who was born in Martinique, died aged 36. He nevertheless made very significant contributions to the discussion of racism and colonialism, influenced strongly by the existentialist tradition. In this episode of the Philosphy Bites podcast David Edmonds discusses Fanon, his ideas, his cultural background, and his impact, with Lewis Gordon, author of What Fanon Said.

We've invited Nick onto the pod for this month's book club to discuss Halo the Fall of Reach.

In this collaboration between Guerrilla History and the Adnan Husain Show, Adnan has a wonderful conversation with a remarkable radical activist, Elaine Mokhtefi, as part of our ongoing series of interviews with living historical revolutionaries. Elaine Mokhtefi is author of "Algiers, Third World Capital: Freedom fighters, Revolutionaries, Black Panthers." This fascinating discussion retraces Elaine's early political engagement with the FLN mission to the UN, her decision to move to Algeria to help build the postcolonial nation after liberation from France, her experiences as a translator and journalist covering the transnational movements for liberation across the Global South, and work with the Black Panthers exiled in Algiers. She danced with Fanon, met radical third world leaders, and struggled for a better world. Now in her 90's, she remains an inspiring and committed activist. A lot to learn in this conversation!

In this solo episode, I take a deep dive into the life of Frantz Fanon, tracing his journey from his early years in Martinique to his groundbreaking work as a psychiatrist and revolutionary thinker.I explore how Fanon's experiences growing up under French colonial rule shaped his understanding of identity and freedom, his formative time studying medicine and psychiatry in France, and his clinical work at Saint-Alban and Blida-Joinville, where his ideas about decolonization and mental health began to take root.This episode serves as an introduction to the series of upcoming conversations I'll be having with scholars and clinicians about Fanon's work and legacy. My goal is to offer listeners—especially those who may not be familiar with Fanon—a sense of the man behind the ideas, the experiences that shaped him, and why his thought still matters so deeply today.

In this episode of The Psyche Podcast, I sit down with psychoanalyst, scholar, and author Derek Hook to explore the intersections between Frantz Fanon, Jacques Lacan, and the work of decolonial psychoanalysis. Drawing from Derek's new book, Fanon, Psychoanalysis, and Critical Decolonial Psychology: The Mind of Apartheid, we discuss how Fanon both used and transformed psychoanalysis to address the psychic realities of racism, colonization, and liberation.Derek shares how growing up under apartheid shaped his lifelong interest in the psychological mechanisms of racism and domination. We talk about Fanon's early encounter with Lacanian ideas through François Tosquelles, his critical response to Octave Mannoni, and how Black Skin, White Masks continues to challenge the limits of both psychoanalysis and politics.Together, we unpack Fanon's reworking of Jung's “collective unconscious” into what Derek calls a European collective unconscious—a psychic structure shaped by racial fantasy, colonial desire, and historical trauma. We also reflect on the place of the “third” or the big Other in the analytic encounter, and how Fanon's vision of a decolonial psychology continues to unsettle, inspire, and demand reflection.This was a deeply engaging conversation that bridges theory and experience—an exploration of how Fanon's work helps us think about freedom not only as a social project but as a psychic and existential one.

n a novel pairing of anti-colonial theorist Frantz Fanon with Marxist-Lacanian philosopher Slavoj Žižek, Zahi Zalloua explores the ways both thinkers expose the violence of political structures.This inventive exploration advances an anti-racist critique, describing how ontology operates in a racial matrix to produce some human bodies that count and others (deemed not-quite- or non-human) that do not. For Fanon and Žižek, the violence of ontology must be met with another form of violence, a revolutionary violence that delegitimizes the logic of the symbolic order and troubles its collective fantasies. Whereas Fanon begins his challenge to ontology by exposing its historical linkages to Europe's destructive imperialist procedures before proceeding to “stretch” Marxism, along with psychoanalysis, to account for the crushing (neo)colonial situation, Žižek premises his work on the refusal to accept the totality of ontology. Because of these different points of intervention, Fanon and Žižek together offer a powerful and multifaceted assessment of the liberal anti-racist paradigm whose propensity for identity politics and aversion to class struggle silence the cry of the dispossessed and foreclose radical change. Avoiding contemporary separatist temptations (decoloniality and Afropessimism), and breaking with a non-violent, sentimentalist futurology that announces more of the same, Fanon and Žižek point in a different direction, one that eschews identitarian thought in favor of a collective struggle for freedom and equality. Zahi Zalloua is Cushing Eells Professor of Philosophy and Literature and a Professor of Indigeneity, Race, and Ethnicity Studies at Whitman College Morteza Hajizadeh is a Ph.D. graduate in English from the University of Auckland in New Zealand. His research interests are Cultural Studies; Critical Theory; Environmental History; Medieval (Intellectual) History; Gothic Studies; 18th and 19th Century British Literature.

Projeté dans le cadre de l'Africa Film Fest Australia, nous parlons du film "Fanon" avec son réalisateur, Jean-Claude Barny, qui a choisi de raconter une période charnière dans la vie du militant anticolonialiste: celle durant laquelle il dirige un service psychiatrique dans un hôpital algérien, alors que débute la guerre d'indépendance...

In this episode of Faculty Spotlight, hosts Mark and Lauren sit down with faculty Alfred Lee and Xafsa Ciise, colleagues whose shared concerns—with race, bias, politics, human consciousness, and the history of science—have cultivated a fascinating and fruitful cross-disciplinary conversation. Xafsa, a social psychologist by training, kicks off the conversation with description of how she found her way into a historical investigation of trauma and its discourses, after which Alfred, a physicist by training and data scientist in practice, details the social and political questions that animate his concern with digital innovation and data applications. Along the way, their conversation touches on the surprising origins of trauma in mesmerism and animal magnetism; the experimenter's effect; simulation and deception in both trauma studies and AI discourse; scientism's bracketing of politics, and politics' return by way of history; conflicting concepts of “intelligence”; contextuality and relationality versus the conceit of universality; Freud, Fanon, and how psychoanalysis thinks about Blackness; the return of eugenics and race IQ discourses; longtermism and what a view to the far-distant future implies about the present; and the dangerously autarkic character of big tech.  The Podcast for Social Research is produced by Ryan Lentini.  Learn more about upcoming courses on our website.

Sometimes the curatorial bent of this show comes from a deep curiosity about the people behind the music we love. The question “What's their deal?” often sparks the journey toward a great interview. Patience is also part of the process because tracking down the artists we want to pepper with questions isn't always easy, and it doesn't always fit neatly into our recording schedule. This week's interview with producer August Fanon has been a long time coming, and it was well worth the wait. He was gracious and open as he spoke with us about his journey as a producer, his creative process, and the sources of his inspiration. In the intro, we share some of our favorite August Fanon productions, and in the outro, we discuss the best Fanon-plus-rapper collaborations. We hope you enjoy this conversation with one of the most interesting figures in indie rap.

Jean-Claude Flamand-Barny présente son dernier long-métrage, « Fanon », en première australienne à l'occasion du festival du film africain de Sydney (African Film Fest Australia 2025). Fort d'une réception critique positive et de plusieurs récompenses, ce film explore la pensée de Frantz Fanon, figure incontournable de l'anticolonialisme.

Both new and seasoned psychotherapists wrestle with the relationship between psychological distress and inequality across race, class, gender, and sexuality. How does one address this organically in psychotherapy? What role does it play in therapeutic action? Who brings it up, the therapist or the patient? Daniel José Gaztambide addresses these questions by offering a rigorous decolonial approach that rethinks theory and technique from the ground up, providing an accessible, evidence-informed reintroduction to psychoanalytic practice. He re-examines foundational thinkers from three traditions--Freudian, relational-interpersonal, and Lacanian--through the lens of revolutionary psychiatrist Frantz Fanon, and offers a detailed analysis of Fanon's psychoanalytic practice. Drawing on rich yet grounded discussions of theory and research, Gaztambide presents a clinical model that facilitates exploration of the social in the clinical space in a manner intimately related to the patient's presenting problem. In doing so, this book demonstrates that clinicians no longer have to choose between attending to the personal, interpersonal, or sociopolitical. It is a guide to therapeutic action "on the couch," which envisions political action "off the couch" and in the streets. Decolonizing Psychoanalytic Technique provides a comprehensive, practice-oriented and compelling guide for students, practitioners, and scholars of critical, multicultural and decolonial approaches to psychotherapy.

What happens when the dialectic between Sartre and Fanon is not one of influence, but of mutual transformation? Today we're live at Webster's in State College with Tyrique Mack-Georges, who returns to the podcast to discuss his research on seriality, group infusion, and the possibility of a new humanity. Together, we explore how Sartre's Critique of Dialectical Reason illuminates Fanon's revolutionary project, and how Fanon, in turn, reorients Sartre's ethics. This is a conversation about stretching Marxism, confronting racial capitalism, and recovering the lost art of collective praxis.Tyrique: @tyorriqueSupport the showSupport the podcast:https://www.acidhorizonpodcast.com/Linktree: https://linktr.ee/acidhorizonAcid Horizon on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/acidhorizonpodcast Boycott Watkins Media: https://xenogothic.com/2025/03/17/boycott-watkins-statement/ Join The Schizoanalysis Project: https://discord.gg/4WtaXG3QxnSubscribe to us on your favorite podcast: https://pod.link/1512615438Merch: http://www.crit-drip.comSubscribe to us on your favorite podcast: https://pod.link/1512615438 LEPHT HAND: https://www.patreon.com/LEPHTHANDHappy Hour at Hippel's (Adam's blog): https://happyhourathippels.wordpress.com​Revolting Bodies (Will's Blog): https://revoltingbodies.com​Split Infinities (Craig's Substack): https://splitinfinities.substack.com/​Music: https://sereptie.bandcamp.com/ and https://thecominginsurrection.bandcamp.com/

There comes a time in the creation of every masterwork where the artist must put down their tools and declare the work done. And whaddya know, the same is true for drunken podcast seasons about art as well! We're finishing up our comics and animation season (while finishing up what's left of our favorite recent whiskeys) with some final thoughts on the topic. And to make sure they're as clear, concise and clever as possible, we start things off by doing a review shot...that somehow turns into two. Fortunately, we manage to keep our heads, if not exactly our dignity, for everything that follows, as we unpack what we enjoyed about The Witcher comics and animated movies and what we'd like to see going forward. Plus, we pick a few favorites and least favorites, offer some unsolicited advice and decide that what we really want to see is a crossover involving Geralt's horse and...well, you should just listen.
