He had already experienced racism as a volunteer in the Free French Army, in which he saw combat at the end of the Second World War. In Algeria, Fanon came into contact with the Front de Lib ration Nationale, whose ruthless struggle for independence was met with exceptional violence from the French forces. He identified closely with the liberation movement, and his political sympathies eventually forced him out the country, whereupon he became a propagandist and ambassador for the FLN, as well as a seminal anticolonial theorist. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eDavid Macey's eloquent life of Fanon provides a comprehensive account of a complex individual's personal, intellectual and political development. It is also a richly detailed depiction of postwar French culture. Fanon is revealed as a flawed and passionate humanist deeply committed to eradicating colonialism. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eNow updated with new historical material, \u003ci\u003eFrantz Fanon\u003c\/i\u003e remains the definitive biography of a truly revolutionary thinker.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Verso\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/13\/2012\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781844677733\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 639\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.65lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.20h x 5.40w x 1.50d","brand":"David Macey","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":36669638344860,"sku":"9781844677733","price":29.71,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/products\/img_14268010-59c1-4328-8054-91fc85b3cefe.jpg?v=1603920666","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/frantz-fanon-a-biography-9781844677733","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
