Adam Shatz & Kevin Okoth: The Rebel’s Clinic

Tuesday 19 March 2024, 7 p.m. · 69 minutes

Frantz Fanon was only 36 when he died in 1961, but his books and ideas – from White Skin, Black Masks to The Wretched of the Earth – have proved lastingly influential. Adam Shatz’s The Rebel’s Clinic is both a biography of Fanon and an in-depth study of his writing.

Shatz, the US editor of the London Review of Books and the author of Writers & Missionaries, was in conversation with Kevin Okoth, author of Red Africa: Reclaiming Revolutionary Black Politics.
