A filmmaker examines the life and theories of anti-colonial psychiatrist and philosopher Frantz Fanon in light of America's modern racial reckoning.
Rediscovering Fanon explores the enduring truths of race articulated by Frantz Fanon (1925–1961) — the revolutionary psychiatrist and anti-colonial thinker born in Martinique, educated in France, and practicing psychiatry in Algeria — whose writings inspired The Battle of Algiers and shaped the Black Panther Party. The film spotlights the peril of black lives under systemic racism in the United States and across the globe.
