Today we discuss the work of Franz Fanon with Dr. Lewis Gordon (@lewgord on Twitter), Professor of Philosophy and Africana Studies, with affiliations in Judaic Studies and Caribbean, Latino/a, and Latin American Studies, at the University of Connecticut at Storrs. His bio can be found at http://www.lewisrgordon.com/biography/.

He is the author of What Fanon Said: A Philosophical Introduction to His Life and Thought (http://amzn.to/2rtzdha). We talked about the worldview of Fanon and how he still matters today.
