Podcasts about Frantz Fanon

Episode 240: En hommage à Elaine Mokhtefi (Décédée le 11 septembre 2026): Rencontre Ce podcast est une rediffusion de l'épisode 83 en hommage à Elaine Mokhtefi, auteur du livre, Alger, capitale de la révolution. De fanon aux Black Panthers (Barzakh, 2019). La trajectoire d'Elaine Mokhtefi, jeune militante américaine, a, dès la guerre de libération nationale et pendant deux décennies, épousé celle de la cause algérienne. Ce combat la mène à New York, au siège des Nations unies avec la délégation du FLN ; à Accra, aux côtés de Frantz Fanon pour la conférence de l'Assemblée mondiale de la jeunesse ; à Alger, enfin, où elle atterrit en 1962, quelques semaines après l'indépendance. Elle y restera jusqu'en 1974. Journaliste, interprète et organisatrice efficace, elle assiste, remplie d'espoir, aux premiers pas de la jeune république, accueille les Black Panthers en exil et participe à mettre sur pied le Festival panafricain d'Alger.  Ses mémoires témoignent de l'effervescence des luttes anticoloniales des années 1960, vécue dans l'intimité des grandes figures de l'époque – Ben Bella, Castro, Eldridge Cleaver –, dans une ville qui a gagné avec sa liberté des allures de capitale de la révolution mondiale.  Une histoire fascinante, qu'Elaine Mokhtefi raconte avec une passion et une conviction intactes.  Elaine Mokhtefi, issue d'une famille de la classe ouvrière américaine, est née en 1928 à New York. La lutte pour l'indépendance l'a conduite à vivre douze ans en Algérie où elle a travaillé comme journaliste et traductrice. Elle s'est mariée à un ancien membre de l'Armée de libération nationale algérienne (ALN) devenu écrivain, Mokhtar Mokhtefi, décédé en 2015, auteur de mémoires très remarqués J'étais Français-Musulman (Barzakh, 2016).  Elle a obtenu la nationalité algérienne en vertu d'un décret présidentiel du 23 juillet 2026 (...). Une naturalisation qui vient saluer un engagement de toute une vie aux côtés de l'Algérie. Par cette naturalisation, l'Algérie rend hommage à une femme qui a consacré une grande partie de sa vie à défendre la Révolution algérienne et les luttes pour la liberté à travers le monde (El Moudjahid). La conférence d'Elaine Mokhtefi a été programmée dans le cadre du cycle des conférences « Histoire du Maghreb, histoire au Maghreb » co-organisé par Centre d'Études Maghrébines en Algérie (CEMA) et le Centre de Recherche en Anthropologie sociale et culturelle (CRASC).  Elle a eu lieu le 06 novembre 2019 au CRASC, Oran. Pr. Hassan Remaoun, chercheur associé, CRASC, a modéré le débat. Écoutez un autre épisode de Elaine Mokhtefi :  Épisode 77 : Workshop sur « Écriture, mémoire et histoire »: Écrire ses mémoires ou comment parler de soi ? Nous remercions notre ami Ignacio Villalón, doctorant à l'Université de Crète / Institut d'études méditerranéennes, pour son interprétation à la guitare qui accompagne l'introduction et la conclusion de ce podcast. Réalisation et montage : Hayet Yebbous Bensaid, Bibliothécaire / Chargée de la diffusion des activités scientifiques (CEMA).

Episode 404 of RevolutionZ continues the excerpted materials from  the seven author work,Liberating Theory, this time with a chapter that insists we need to address a “community sphere” to understand society, not as a feel-good add-on, but as a core part of how society persists or changes. Community affiliation is shaped by social relations, history, and culture, and it follows us into every other arena of life, from economics to family roles to political conflict. To attain durable solidarity and transcend oppressive structures, we have to understand what communities are, why they form, and how they can nurture people while also being pulled into hierarchy, hostility, and domination.We also tackle a stubborn myth head-on: race as biology. The argument is clear that racial categories are biologically arbitrary even while racism is brutally real, because racism is the hierarchical ordering of culturally defined communities. Drawing from Frantz Fanon and Paulo Freire, we explore how oppression doesn't just restrict material life, it can reshape selfhood through internalized control, and why liberation requires more than policy changes or abstract moral opposition.Then, like with other excerpted chapters, the tone shifts into an unscripted-style dialogue where different left traditions collide: Marxist Leninist, council communist, anarchist, nationalist, radical feminist, socialist feminist, and some others too to debate issues of religion, assimilation, cultural autonomy and more. Have you encountered excahnges broadly like these? Where do you stand? How can we criticize harmful practices and assert personal priorities without sliding into defensive and even hostile erasure of others. The tension is the point: single-cause theories miss how community, class, gender, and the state continually shape each other.The Liberating Theory sequence as a whole presents the shared views of seven authors who worked together to offer ideas for new theory, vision, and strategy forty years ago. Were they on a good track then? Are their ideas worth pursuing now? These episodes put those two questions. Will you assess and decide your answers? Should we now return to old ideologies or seek something new ala Liberating Theory?Support the show

We dive back in to our conversation with Tina Shauf-Bajar, organizer with GABRIELA Oakland, and Lubna Morrar, with the Palestinian Feminist Collective. After sharing our histories of migration and displacement in Part 1, we discuss how these legacies continue to shape our communities – our identities, relationships, and sense of belonging – in the diaspora today. If you haven't listened to Even in Our Dreams Part 1, Episode 6 of Rising For Our Motherlands, we encourage you to go back to listen now.Lubna Morrar is poet, hairstylist and makeup artist. She is a Palestinian community organizer and activist from the Bay Area.Tina Shauf-Bajar is a Filipino community organizing, singer and culture worker who has long been involved in migrant rights organizing, connecting struggles in her homeland to those faced by workers in the Bay Area.Together we explore how re-membering our languages, food and cultural practices are antidotes to resist pressures like assimilation and generational separation from our lands. We reflect on how embodying dignity becomes a powerful act of resistance and resilience, on the importance of cultural production as a strategy, and make space to freedom dream.Special thanks to Kendall of We Rise and KPFA for hosting us as we recorded our conversation.This episode features poetry, Try Not To Cry (a poem for Gaza) by Lubna Morrar, an excerpt from Algerian revolutionary Frantz Fanon's 1961 book The Wretched of the Earth narrated in the 2014 documentary called "Concerning Violence", and chants from a Bay Area protest.Featured music: A Time To Cry by Rim Banna, Gangsta Warrior by Mass Bass (which includes the vocals of Tina Shauf-Bajar),  Organizing Steadily by Power Struggle, Amihan & RAHSELLA, G'areeb Fi Bladi (Stranger in My Own Country) by DAM, and Palestine Will Never Die by Lowkey featuring Mai Khalil.

With Lara Sheehi.  This month, we are joined on the podcast by Lara Sheehi, author of From the Clinic to the Streets: Psychoanalysis for Revolutionary Futures. As Sophie Lewis writes, “this book embodies a despecialized psychoanalytic praxis of revolutionary anticolonialism that is genuinely worthy of the name ‘Fanon.' ... Lara Sheehi lays her finger directly on the myriad ‘intrusions' designed to thwart, confuse, pacify, and derail internationalist resistance to imperial barbarism at the level of our very interiority.” In our conversation today, we talk about some of the key ideas underpinning Lara's book. We discuss 'psychic intrusions' and 'psychic militancy'; the complicity of the psychoanalytic profession in upholding systems of domination; and how we might seize psychoanalysis for revolutionary ends. We also talk about Frantz Fanon, Ghassan Kanafani and Malcolm X, how we should embrace extremism, and why Palestine is a harbinger of psychoanalytical meltdown.

What does Blackness look like? In Forms of Blackness: Race and Visibility in the French-Speaking World (Duke University Press, 2026), Cécile Bishop argues that this seemingly simple question has no straightforward answer. Instead of treating race as something immediately visible, she explores how Blackness emerges through the interplay of perception, language, and history. A central theme of the book is that visibility is never neutral. Through examples ranging from photographs of the Liberation of Paris to works of art such as Portrait of a Black Woman, Bishop shows that Blackness cannot be reduced to what is seen. Instead, she introduces the idea of Blackness as form, emphasizing the importance of representation, opacity, and aesthetic experience. Engaging with thinkers such as Édouard Glissant and Frantz Fanon, Bishop invites readers to rethink the assumption that seeing is the same as knowing. Forms of Blackness offers a thoughtful and original account of how race is shaped not simply by appearance, but by the ways we learn to see. Amisah Bakuri (PhD) is an Assistant Professor in the Faculty of Social Sciences and Humanities at Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam. Her work explores the intersections of religion, sexuality, gender, and migration, especially within African diasporic communities in the Netherlands. Learn more about your ad choices.

In today's lecture, we explore Caribbean history through the lens of cinema and globalization. We begin with Chapter 11 of Neoliberalism, Globalization, Income Inequality, Poverty and Resistance by Renaldo McKenzie. This chapter examines the use of documentary films as forms of resistance and demonstrates how cinema can serve as a powerful medium for social critique and social change.The lecture centers on the documentary Life and Debt, analyzing how globalization has disproportionately affected the peoples of the Global South, particularly in the Caribbean. Students examine the contradictions and ironies of globalization, decolonization, and denationalization, while questioning whether political independence has translated into genuine economic and cultural liberation.Drawing on the works of Frantz Fanon, particularly The Wretched of the Earth; Homi K. Bhabha and The Location of Culture; and V. S. Naipaul and his literary contributions as forms of resistance and social commentary, the lecture explores the intellectual foundations of Caribbean thought and postcolonial critique.Students are introduced to and discuss key concepts including nationalism, colonialism, decolonization, postcolonialism, mise-en-scène, globalization, the Global South versus the Global North, and the ways visual storytelling can shape historical consciousness and political understanding.The lecture then transitions into a historical timeline of the Caribbean, beginning with ancient Kemet over 5,000 years ago, examining early African civilizations and pre-Columbian societies before tracing the arrival of Christopher Columbus and the profound transformations that followed. Through this historical journey, students are encouraged to rethink conventional narratives about the Caribbean and situate the region within broader global historical processes.Delivered live via Zoom, this lecture is part of the Caribbean Thought course at Jamaica Theological Seminary and reaches students across the Caribbean, the United States, Canada, and beyond. The course is taught by Professor Renaldo McKenzie, author of Neoliberalism, Globalization, Income Inequality, Poverty and Resistance, President of The Neoliberal Corporation, and creator and host of The Neoliberal Round Podcast. Professor McKenzie delivers the lectures from Philadelphia, bringing together history, philosophy, political economy, and media studies to challenge students to critically examine the Caribbean's past, present, and future.For more information, email info@theneoliberal.com.Visit theneoliberal.com and renaldocmckenzie.com.Learn more about Jamaica Theological Seminary at https://jts.edu.jm.

SD53 Carles Guerra “Tosquelles: El diagnóstico de una locura colectiva” Carles Guerra nos presenta su trabajo de investigación sobre la increíble figura de Francesc Tosquelles. Ahora que volvemos a vivir en un estado de guerra, hablar de Tosquelles nos puede ayudar a entender cómo se pueden generar herramientas y formas de trabajo colectivas, así como nuevas maneras de relacionarse con las instituciones, transformándolas y cuestionando las divisiones del trabajo establecidas. Fundamental para lo que se llama la psicología institucional, su influencia se extiende a psiquiatras como Jean Oury, Frantz Fanon y Félix Guattari. Tosquelles fue de las primeras en aunar las ideas de Marx y Lacan, desarrollando técnicas fundamentales a partir de la idea de que el hospital en sí mismo forma parte de la enfermedad. Tras haber pasado por campos de concentración en Francia después de la Guerra Civil Española, comenzó a trabajar en el Hospital psiquiátrico de Saint-Alban. En ese contexto, en Francia se estaba produciendo lo que se ha llamado el “exterminio dulce”, en el que personas con problemas de salud mental morían por hambre y abandono. Frente a ello, en Saint-Alban se desarrollaron prácticas colectivas que articularon clínica, arte, política y vida cotidiana. También abordamos la instrumentalización que Jean Dubuffet hizo de los trabajos artísticos de lxs pacientes bajo su concepto de art brut. Saint-Alban no era solo un hospital, sino un auténtico nodo político, clínico e intelectual, donde circulaban médicos, resistentes, poetas y filósofos como Georges Canguilhem. También abordamos la figura de Josep Solanes, fascinante psiquiatra catalán exiliado tras la guerra, cuya trayectoria se cruza con la de Antonin Artaud en 1943, durante su internamiento en el Hospital psiquiátrico de Rodez. Hablamos asimismo de la gran recepción que está teniendo el trabajo de investigación sobre Tosquelles y de los riesgos de simplificación que pueden surgir al abordar una figura tan compleja.

« Ousmane Sonko prend les manettes », s'exclame WalfQuotidien à Dakar. « Comme il fallait s'y attendre avec la majorité "mécanique" de Pastef, l'ex-Premier ministre a été porté à la tête de l'hémicycle hier avec 132 voix contre une seule abstention. Une décision qui intervient après son installation comme parlementaire à la place de son suppléant Ismaël Wone. Cette élection au perchoir intervient quelques jours seulement après son limogeage de son poste de Premier ministre. » Conséquence, relève WalfQuotidien : « En attendant les deux ans de la 15e législature, délai imposé à un chef de l'État avant de pouvoir dissoudre l'Assemblée nationale, le président Bassirou Diomaye Faye devra apprendre à composer avec Ousmane Sonko pour la bonne marche du pays. Dans le cas contraire, la majorité parlementaire de Pastef pourrait lui mener la vie dure. » Et déjà, le Pastef pose ses conditions à propos de la formation du prochain gouvernement : « Le Pastef monte la garde, pointe le site Seneplus. Le Comité exécutif du parti révèle que certains de ses membres ont d'ores et déjà été contactés par les services de la présidence en vue de la formation du prochain gouvernement. Cette collaboration doit se faire "suivant des orientations programmatiques claires", affirme le Pastef. » Notamment : « Fidélité au programme qui a porté le parti au pouvoir en 2024, clarification des perspectives dans la gestion de la dette souveraine, blocage des mesures de hausse du coût de la vie, poursuite des renégociations des contrats stratégiques, lutte contre la corruption et contrôle des fonds opaques… » Le président Bassirou Diomaye Faye sous « surveillance » ? Alors cet « épisode révèle une réalité politique fondamentale, relève Afrik.com : le Pastef reste structuré autour de la figure d'Ousmane Sonko. Depuis l'accession au pouvoir en 2024, certains observateurs estimaient que l'appareil du parti allait progressivement se réorganiser autour du président Diomaye Faye, devenu chef de l'État, même si la majorité des Sénégalais a toujours considéré Ousmane Sonko comme le véritable chef de l'exécutif. Les événements des derniers jours confirment que le Premier ministre déchu conserve toute sa force et continue de bénéficier de la confiance des militants et cadres de la formation politique. » Et désormais, poursuit Afrik.com, s'ouvre « une nouvelle phase politique au Sénégal. En devenant président de l'Assemblée nationale, Ousmane Sonko accède au rang de deuxième personnalité de l'État. Surtout, il obtient une plateforme institutionnelle puissante lui permettant d'influencer directement l'action gouvernementale. La situation devient particulièrement délicate pour Bassirou Diomaye Faye qui doit désormais composer avec son ancien mentor devenu chef du pouvoir législatif, soutenu par la majorité parlementaire. Diomaye Faye risque désormais de gouverner sous la surveillance permanente de celui qu'il a tenté d'écarter. » Une ligne radicale Et le Sénégal se retrouve dans « une véritable zone de turbulence démocratique » : c'est du moins l'opinion d'Alioune Tine, fondateur du think tank Afrikajom Center et figure historique de la société civile sénégalaise. Alioune Tine qui répond aux questions du Point Afrique. « Nous allons vers le blocage et vers l'ingouvernabilité, affirme-t-il. Le centre du pouvoir va désormais se déplacer vers l'Assemblée nationale. Le Parlement va prendre l'initiative politique et chercher à dicter ses conditions à l'exécutif. Le discours de Sonko est très clair, constate Alioune Tine : il reste sur une ligne radicale qui risque encore d'accentuer les tensions avec le président Diomaye Faye. (…) La motion de censure sera l'épée de Damoclès permanente de cette nouvelle gouvernance politique, prévient encore l'analyste sénégalais. Tous les Premiers ministres qui viendront risquent d'être censurés. (…) Si on ne fait pas attention, on pourrait même aller vers une situation où le mandat présidentiel actuel ne serait pas mené à son terme. » Rupture souverainiste Et cette ligne radicale de Sonko est détaillée par Le Monde Afrique : « L'ex-Premier ministre sénégalais plaide pour une rupture souverainiste radicale, écrit le journal. Si, dans de précédents ouvrages, Ousmane Sonko privilégiait une approche technique des sujets et semblait assez ouvert au libéralisme économique, dans ses derniers écrits, il emprunte une langue révolutionnaire. Il reprend par exemple au penseur martiniquais Frantz Fanon ses thèses sur le caractère "parasitaire" des bourgeoisies des pays décolonisés. Ousmane Sonko déplore aussi, constate encore Le Monde Afrique, que le Sénégal soit enfermé dans un "modèle économique colonial". Alors que Dakar est engagé dans des discussions avec le FMI à propos de la dette publique, il dénonce, sans nommer l'institution, les "pressions extérieures et les injonctions". Le dirigeant réaffirme le besoin de changements structurels et rappelle qu'il tient à tourner la page du franc CFA. »

As Israel's genocide in Gaza continues and Lebanon faces ongoing aggression and political pressure to capitulate, many people are grappling with fear, exhaustion, and despair.But what if hopelessness itself is part of the strategy?Psychoanalyst and author Lara Sheehi joins Dispatches with Rania Khalek to discuss the psychological dimensions of fascism, empire, colonial violence, and resistance — from Israeli psychological warfare and sexual humiliation as a tool of domination, to the weaponization of sectarianism in Lebanon, the role of media propaganda, and why revolutionary optimism is itself a political act.Sheehi also discusses her new book, From the Clinic to the Streets: Psychoanalysis for Revolutionary Futures, and explains why the work of Frantz Fanon is more urgent than ever.Topics include:Psychic militancy and psychological warfareHow fascism reshapes society psychologicallyIsraeli violence, humiliation & dominationLebanon, sectarianism & capitulation politicsWhy empire depends on despairThe limits of liberalismThe politics of the wellness industryMedia propaganda and psychological controlRevolutionary optimism and resistance

Abby and Patrick welcome clinician, activist, and writer Lara Sheehi, author of the brand-new book, From the Clinic to The Streets: Psychoanalysis for Revolutionary Futures. Situating this book and her other work within the context of her background and experiences with psychoanalytic institutions, Sheehi leads Abby and Patrick on a frank and searching conversation with far-reaching implications. What does it mean to identify with psychoanalysis in the abstract, what are the tools psychoanalysis gives us for thinking about the political stakes of our identifications, and what does it mean when psychoanalytic institutions demand disidentification from lived experiences and urgent political concerns? What stories does mainstream psychoanalysis tell about itself, what histories does it repress, and what contemporary material realities does it disavow? What are the promises of a “despecialized” psychoanalysis, and how might a despecialized psychoanalysis put psychoanalytic concepts and approaches to liberatory use? Addressing these questions and more, the three discuss topics including: the history of psychoanalysis as a Eurocentric enterprise; its extensive weaponization as a tool of imperial domination and counterinsurgent repression; emancipatory and decolonial approaches to psychoanalysis via figures like Frantz Fanon; the complicities, contradictions, and enactments of contemporary psychoanalysis against a backdrop of transphobic legislation, genocide in Gaza, and more; psyops, psychological warfare, and military psychology; psychodynamic counterinsurgency theory; logics of blame, ingratitude, exclusion, and confusion; the work of “psychic intrusions” on the level of individual psyches and group dynamics; the necessity of “psychic militancy” as a concept and as a disciplined practice; and much, much more.Lara Sheehi, From the Clinic to the Streets: Psychoanalysis for Revolutionary FuturesLara Sheehi and Stephen Sheehi, Psychoanalysis Under Occupation: Practicing Resistance in PalestineSara Ahmed, Willful SubjectsErnesto Che Guevara, “On Revolutionary Medicine”Frantz Fanon, Black Skins, White MasksFanon, The Wretched of the Earth David Petraeus, FM 3-24: Counterinsurgency“A conversation between sword and neck” Ghassan Kanafani's 1970 interview with ABC's Richard Carleton in Beirut Lara's personal website The Psychic Militancy podcastHave you noticed that Freud is back?

This lecture was delivered on May 18th 2026by Rev. Renaldo McKenzie at Jamaica Theological Seminary to students in the Caribbean Thought course. Today we explored the concept of Afrocentricity and developing an Afrocentric Paradigm to the study of the Caribbean or o Caribbean Thought. Towards the end we reviewed the Course Outline.Notes:_________________I. Why This Inquiry MattersBefore we define these concepts, we must recognize one important point:Perspective shapes thought.The way we are taught to see the world determines how we understand history, religion, race, culture, and even ourselves. Caribbean societies emerged out of colonization, slavery, displacement, and resistance. Therefore, many of the ideas we inherit about civilization, morality, religion, and identity are rooted within colonial structures.The Caribbean person often lives within competing worlds:• African heritage, • European institutions, • Christian theology, • colonial education, • and postcolonial realities. Thus, Caribbean Thought requires critical examination of the foundations of knowledge itself.________________II. Defining Key Terms1. AfrocentricityAccording to Molefi Kete Asante and Ama Mazama, Afrocentricity is a way of seeing and interpreting the world from the perspective of African people as subjects rather than objects of history.Afrocentricity seeks to:• center African agency, • restore African humanity, • reclaim African history, • and cultivate what Dr. Mazama calls a “consciousness of victory” rather than perpetual oppression. Afrocentricity does not necessarily reject other cultures. Rather, it insists that African people have the right to define themselves and interpret reality from their own historical and cultural experiences.In simple terms:Afrocentricity asks: What happens when African people become the center of their own narratives instead of existing only through European interpretations?ConclusionToday's lecture introduced the conceptual foundations for our study of Caribbean Thought.We examined:• Afrocentricity, • Afrocentrism, • Eurocentrism, • ethnocentrism, • colonialism, • and the Afrocentric Paradigm. We also explored how colonial consciousness continues to shape Caribbean identity, religion, culture, and historical understanding.Next week, we will move into African civilizations and early African contributions to world history as we continue developing an African-centered understanding of Caribbean identity and consciousness.Bibliography / Source ListMolefi Kete Asante.

Does decolonization require violence? In episode 172 of Overthink, Ellie and David take a closer look at Frantz Fanon's The Wretched of the Earth, “the bible of decolonization.” They discuss Fanon's bold stance on violence, his condemnation of rituals and dance, and some potential criticisms. They also question what the subjectivity of colonized people looks like given colonialism's psycho-affective effects. What does violence do for the colonized? Who gets liberation movements off the ground? And what are the challenges that a newly independent nation might face once a colonial power has been overthrown? In the Substack bonus segment, your hosts talk about Fanon's critique of Africanism and some of the clinical cases Fanon incorporates into this important work.Works Discussed:Frantz Fanon, The Wretched of The EarthConcerning Violence (2014)Enjoy our work?

This episode engages with Glen Coulthard's 2014 book Red Skin, White Masks: Rejecting the Colonial Politics of Recognition. Coulthard weaves a rich and varied tradition of radical Indigenous thought and practice with Marxism and the anti-colonial thought of Frantz Fanon into a distinctive vision of emancipation. Together, we interrogate his claims that dispossession rather than exploitation, or the expropriation of land rather than the expropriation of labour, constitutes the paradigmatic mode of domination for colonized peoples. More than anything, we contend with the notion that state ‘recognition' is not only insufficient, but inimical to the kind of emancipatory Indigenous politics Coulthard envisions.  leftofphilosophy.com | @leftofphil | @leftofphilosophy.bsky.social References:Glen Sean Coulthard, Red Skin, White Masks: Rejecting the Colonial Politics of Recognition (Minneapolis: University of Minnesota Press, 2014).Music:“Vintage Memories” by Schematist | schematist.bandcamp.com“My Space” by Overu | https://get.slip.stream/KqmvAN

What do Ukrainians and Black Americans share in their historical and cultural experiences? Can we draw comparisons between serfdom and slavery, or find parallels in the colonial traumas and the struggle for human dignity? Furthermore, what role do culture, identity, and language play in overcoming these legacies? In this episode of the Explaining Ukraine podcast, we share a recording of a vital discussion held at PEN Ukraine in Kyiv in October 2025. This conversation explores collective memory, the universal aspiration for freedom, and the growing solidarity between communities that have endured systemic oppression. *** Our Speakers are: - Terrell Jermaine Starr – Independent American journalist and host of Black Diplomats, a documentary news show covering civilian life in Ukraine. Over his 16-year career, he has reported extensively on the U.S. military, nuclear policy, and the Black Lives Matter movement. - Christopher Atwood – Human rights and communications expert, Head of the Ukraïner International, which an international branch of Ukrainer, a popular Ukrainian media.

Discussion at PEN Ukraine, October, 2025. 00:04:03 What can Black Americans and Ukrainians tell each other to make their shared struggles better understood by the world? 00:07:34 What are the three profound commonalities between the 2014 Maidan Revolution and the Black Lives Matter movement? 00:18:54 How do the legacies of Frederick Douglass and Taras Shevchenko reveal the universal trauma of being "born into unfreedom"? 00:22:56 How did the exploitative "sharecropping" system in the American South mirror the traps faced by Ukrainian peasants? 00:28:41 What is the historical link between the "slave catchers" of the 19th century and the architecture of modern American policing? 00:30:30 In what ways is the current political divide in America a shadow of the Civil War? 00:32:38 Why does the American democracy only have a "30-year jump" on Ukraine's independence? 00:33:48 In what ways is "whiteness" weaponized as a tool of convenience by Western powers? 00:35:07 What is the difference between the "colonialism of racism" and the "colonialism of assimilation"? 00:36:18 How does Frantz Fanon's Black Skin, White Masks explain language as a primary tool of domination? 00:37:15 Why does the Western intellectuals struggle to reject colonialism in practice? 00:42:48 Why is it a dangerous intellectual shortcut to blame systemic issues on "one bad man" like Trump or Putin? 00:53:32 What does the history of the Brooklyn Bridge reveal about the racial hierarchies? 00:57:17 How can Black Americans and Ukrainians build solidarity when they face the same systems of oppression but have "colonizers who look different"? 01:05:40 What are the "multiple layers of whiteness"? 01:12:50 How does Edward Said's Orientalism help explain why Western scholars often treat Ukrainians as "objects" of study rather than "subjects"? 01:24:10 How did Western academics miss the "seething rage" that signaled Ukrainians would never welcome invaders as liberators? 01:26:56 Why does the American "dominant class" believe democracy is a finished project? 01:33:33 Can a government truly understand the cultural dynamics of another country if it refuses to reflect on the racial dynamics of its own?

Dimitri and Khalid explore the philosophical works of 20th century Iranian sociologist and Shia Islamic socialist Ari Shariati, including: “Red Shi'ism” versus “Black Shi'ism” and Islam-as-liberation theology, collaborating in Paris with Jean-Paul Sartre and Frantz Fanon, his areas of agreement and disagreement with Marxist materialism, his influence on Pierre Omidyar's Qajar dynasty-descended mother and a variety of anti-Shah political movements, calling out corrupted religious leaders as the most dangerous Shaytans of all, his mysterious 1977 death in London (probably at the hands of SAVAK), the shadowy Forqan Group of ultraleft Islamo-socialist assassins who claimed to uphold Shariati's ideas but may have been a CIA/Mossad Gladio op to sow hatred between the Ayatollahs and the Marxist parties, and more… For access to full-length premium SJ episodes, upcoming installments of DEMON FORCES, and the Grotto of Truth Discord, subscribe at https://patreon.com/subliminaljihad.

We explore the interconnected artistic and political lives of figures from the Maghreb and the Black diaspora who collaborated in North Africa from the mid-1950s to the late 1970s, forming what our guest calls the Maghreb Generation, and cover the iconic 1969 Pan-African Festival of Algiers, where cultural figures like Nina Simone and political groups like the Black Panthers were present. Assistant Professor of History at Cornell University and author of "Maghreb Noir: The Militant Artist of North Africa and the Struggle for a Pan-African Postcolonial Future," Dr. Paraska Tolan-Szkilnik discusses her work which re-centers artists and intellectuals from Morocco, Algeria, and Tunisia as key political actors in the mid-20th-century anti-colonial and pan-African movements. Dr. Tolan-Szkilnik explains how these militant artists (deeply influenced by thinkers like Frantz Fanon) championed a philosophy of continued, revolutionary decolonization beyond flag independence. The episode details the political and personal risks these activists faced, including imprisonment for figures like Moroccan poet Abdellatif Laâbi and the assassination of Algerian poet Jean Sénac. Finally, the conversation explores film as a revolutionary form of culture for the highly illiterate populace and the enduring legacy of this generation's radical vision for South-South solidarity.   0:53 Introduction 1:37 The Path to Pan-Africanism and the Maghreb 5:51 The Pan-African Festival of Algiers (1969) 7:23 The Substance of Revolution: Beyond the Speeches 10:00 The African Union, Liberation Movements, and Algiers 12:47 Questions of Race and Algerian Reactions to Blackness 14:19 North Africa as One Entity and French Colonial Borders 16:40 Central Figures of the Maghreb Generation 23:34 Defining the "Militant Artist" 25:15 The Philosophical DNA: Continued Decolonization 26:38 Frantz Fanon as Intellectual Forefather 27:44 The Autocratic Grind: Exile, Jail, and Death 34:54 The Moroccan Poet Abdellatif Laâbi and Souffles 40:09 Film as Revolutionary Culture 45:48 Turning Away from the West 49:00 The Striking Life of Jean Sénac 53:11 Poetry of Enthusiasm and Disillusionment   Paraska Tolan-Szkilnik is a historian of 20th century Africa and the Middle East.

Mike's guests on this edition of Hitting Left are filmmaker and cultural historian Floyd Webb, who is promoting a new film, 'Rediscovering Fanon'. Floyd joins us with his ongoing excavation of Frantz Fanon's legacy, how Fanon's ideas move through film, memory, and current anti-colonial movements. Floyd will be joined by Peter Hudis, author of Frantz Fanon: Philosopher of the Barricades.

À l'occasion de la Journée mondiale de la justice sociale, en février, le Palais des Nations à Genève a accueilli la projection d'un film consacré à Frantz Fanon, psychiatre martiniquais et figure majeure des luttes anticoloniales, engagé durant la guerre d'Algérie et auteur d'analyses marquantes sur les mécanismes d'oppression et les inégalités structurelles.Organisé par l'Institut de recherche des Nations Unies pour le développement social (UNRISD) et l'association Shap Shap, l'événement a réuni chercheurs, cinéastes et jeunes participants autour d'une réflexion sur l'actualité de sa pensée face aux fractures sociales contemporaines.Dans ce podcast, ONU Info Genève revient sur les débats qui ont suivi la projection avec Karima Cherif, Directrice de la communication de l'UNRISD, Jean-Claude Barny, réalisateur du film, et Alexandre Bouyer, qui incarne Fanon à l'écran.Ils évoquent la portée contemporaine de son message, le rôle du cinéma pour sensibiliser aux injustices sociales, et l'engagement de jeunes participants venus partager leurs expériences et leurs idées pour transformer les inégalités. Entretien réalisé par Alexandre Carette

Nouveau rendez-vous avec la revue ESPRIT dans ce numéro. Pierre-Édouard Deldique reçoit en effet Anne-Lorraine Bujon, sa directrice pour parler du numéro de janvier-février de la revue partenaire de l'émission et, notamment, du dossier intitulé « Penser avec Frantz Fanon » un peu plus de cent ans après la naissance de ce penseur dans l'action. Coordonné par la philosophe Magali Bessone, il interroge la puissance toujours actuelle d'une œuvre née dans un contexte historique singulier et pourtant capable d'éclairer les impasses politiques, sociales et psychiques du présent. Figure majeure de la pensée anticoloniale, psychiatre, théoricien de la violence, analyste des mécanismes d'aliénation et de déshumanisation, Frantz Fanon nous interpelle toujours. Fait important : il est l'auteur d'articles publiés dans ESPRIT au début des années 50. Au fil des contributions, la revue nous explique pourquoi l'œuvre de ce médecin, intellectuel engagé dans la lutte pour l'indépendance algérienne auprès du FLN – continue de résonner dans un monde où les formes de domination persistent. Loin d'être un penseur figé dans les années 1950‑60, Frantz Fanon nous offre encore des outils conceptuels pour penser la persistance des hiérarchies raciales dans les sociétés contemporaines, les nouvelles formes de dépossession liées à la mondialisation néolibérale, la crise des subjectivités, entre violence intériorisée et quête de reconnaissance, la question de la désaliénation, horizon politique et anthropologique que Fanon n'a cessé de reformuler. Plusieurs articles soulignent que Fanon nous offre un regard neuf pour comprendre la longue liste des crises actuelles : violences policières et institutionnelles, qui réactivent la question des « corps racialisés » ; migrations et les frontières, où se rejouent des logiques de tri et de déshumanisation, fractures géopolitiques, montée des nationalismes, qui renoue avec des imaginaires d'exclusion. Le dossier ne se contente pas d'actualiser Fanon : il interroge aussi les limites de son héritage, notamment sa conception de la violence libératrice ou sa vision parfois homogénéisante du « peuple ». Au micro d'Idées, Anne-Lorraine Bujon revient aussi sur l'influence de Sartre sur cet intellectuel mort trop jeune et réciproquement. Ce numéro d'Esprit montre que penser avec Fanon, ce n'est ni répéter ses concepts ni sacraliser son héritage. C'est réactiver une pensée de la désaliénation, attentive aux corps, aux institutions, aux violences visibles et invisibles.

Last summer 2025 I made my first ever trip to South Africa, specifically Johannesburg, Durban and Cape Town. I went there to make connections, interview local jazz artists, elders and community leaders.  One of the very talented artists I connected with was jazz drummer, composer and scholar Tumi Mogorosi. We took a deep dive into his journey as an artist and activist. He spoke about what inspired him to play the drums and to study the rich history of this music we call jazz. He expressed the importance of knowing his history as a South African and all that it entails, including the horrors of apartheid, the 1976 Soweto uprising and the injustices that continue to exist today. We dove into his projects as a leader which include the 2014 “Project Elo”, “Sanctum Santorium” with his partner and vocalist Gabi Motuba, and his most recent album Group Theory: Black Music. We touched on his collaborations with Shabaka Hutchings' Shabaka and The Ancestors and lastly as a historian, he expressed his deep appreciation for Frantz Fanon and why his work is so relevant, even today.

In this episode, we're joined by author and poet Too Black to unpack his essay "Nonviolence is violence, too: Somebody's gotta die," and to challenge the comforting myths that often surround "nonviolent" struggle. We dig into what he means by the claim that nonviolence is never actually bloodless, why he prefers the term "sacrificial violence," and how nonviolent movements frequently gain leverage precisely because an opponent supplies the repression that shocks the public, shifts legitimacy, and forces concessions. Along the way, we talk through the research Too Black draws on including Erica Chenoweth's work on lethal repression, and we explore his core metaphors and case examples, from confronting power like "poking a bear over honey" to the method-independent brutality of settler colonialism in Palestine. At the heart of our conversation is a deep dialectic between Martin Luther King Jr. and Frantz Fanon, and how both frameworks, in different ways, move through violence as an unavoidable terrain of liberation. For King, suffering becomes the redemptive path, a willingness to absorb brutality to expose evil and transform the political and spiritual situation. For Fanon, revolutionary violence itself is the redemptive force, the route through which the colonized reclaim dignity, agency, and self-respect. We close by asking what this reframing means for organizers today: if rights require enforcement and "dramatizing evil" often demands real sacrifice, how should movements talk about nonviolence honestly and strategically in the world as it actually is?

The success of new far-right movements cannot be explained by fear or rage alone – the pleasures of aggression and violence are just as essential. As such, racism is particularly intense when it is erotically charged, migration presenting as a sexual threat to white women being one of many examples. Germany's strikingly successful right-wing political party Alternative für Deutschland is, according to the historian Dagmar Herzog, characterized by this “sexy racism,” with its second main feature being that of an obsessive hostility to disability – both elements resonating strongly with Nazism. In The New Fascist Body, Herzog connects her analysis of fascism's libidinous energy with its animus against bodies perceived as imperfect. Only by studying the emotional and intellectual worlds of past fascisms can we understand and combat their current manifestations. The book features an afterword by Alberto Toscano, author of Late Fascism: Race, Capitalism and the Politics of Crisis (Verso 2023). Lisa Schmidt-Herzog is a Berlin-based writer and researcher. Her academic work focuses on the biopolitics of medical standardization and the influence of cultural and ethico-political norms on mental health and illness. She is interested in the historicity of scientific concepts and subject-centered approaches to health and illness, and examines the radical thought of theorists and practitioners such as Georges Canguilhem, Frantz Fanon, and Erich Wulff. For NBN's Critical Theory channel, she focuses on medical pluralism, the relationship between health and resistance, and the pragmatics of healing. Learn more about your ad choices.

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.
