"The Wretched of the Earth" (by Frantz Fanon)

"The Wretched of the Earth" is a seminal work by Frantz Fanon that explores the psychological and social impacts of colonialism on both colonizers and the colonized. Fanon argues that decolonization is a violent process, emerging from the oppression faced by colonized peoples. He emphasizes the importance of reclaiming identity and agency for the oppressed, arguing that authentic liberation comes through revolutionary action. Drawing on his experiences in Algeria, Fanon critiques colonial systems and offers insights into race, identity, and the struggles for freedom, making it a crucial text in postcolonial studies and liberation movements.
