The influences of anticolonial intellectual and activist Frantz Fanon have inspired the work of liberation movements worldwide, and they continue to generate robust cross-disciplinary debate by scholars across the humanities, social sciences, and medical fields. The Afterlives of Fanon working group aims to provide an institutional home for graduate scholarship on decolonization, anti-colonialism, and liberation at Berkeley with an outlook to the broader Bay Area, providing a space to think with Fanon’s work and its afterlives through an interdisciplinary geographic lens.
