Frantz Fanon’s Black Skin, White Masks:
A Primary Text of Post-Colonial Jive
Part 12,877 words
Part 1 of 4 (Part 2 here)
Frantz Fanon was a black author who mostly wrote about being black. (Of course, right?) The celebrated skintellectual began as a citizen of Martinique. He volunteered for the De Gaullist forces during the Second World War. Then he got a university education on scholarship in Lyon and became a psychiatrist.

Today I wish to talk about Charles de Gaulle and some seldom-examined aspects of the Algerian Crisis that spanned 1954 to 1962. But in order to edge into all that, I first have to talk about one of my favorite and oft-viewed movies, The Day of the Jackal (1973; the original version).

Editor’s Note:
Roger Degueldre was executed on July 6th, 1962. In commemoration, we are republishing this anonymous Attack! article. It is a sobering account of the OAS, a brave but intellectually compromised and ultimately ineffectual resistance to the vile and sordid betrayal of the European settlers of Algeria by Charles de Gaulle. Please contact me if you know the identity of the author. With the exception of the first, all photo captions are from the original article. (more…)
