Frantz Fanon's political texts published in this volume cover the most active period of his life, from the publication of Black Skin, White Masks in 1952 - he was then twenty-eight years old - to that of The Wretched of the Earth in 1961, which was to coincide, within a few days, with the date of his death. Retracing the thread of a constantly evolving reflection on the colonial phenomenon, experienced from the inside, these texts denounce both colonialism and the pitfalls of decolonization, - the "great white error" and the "great black mirage". .
Exploring in turn the situation of the colonized, which he can scientifically account for through his daily medical experience, the attitude of left-wing intellectuals towards the Algerian war, the prospects for the conjunction of the struggle of all the colonized and the conditions of an alliance of the whole of the African continent, Frantz Fanon kept the certainty of the forthcoming total liberation of Africa. His analysis and the clarity of his vision today give us the keys necessary to understand the current African reality.
