FILM SCREENING & DISCUSSION:
"Concerning Violence: Nine Scenes From Anti-Imperialist Self-Defense"
This 2014 documentary is written and directed by Göran Hugo Olsson and
narrated by Lauryn Hill. It takes the work of anti-imperialist
revolutionary philosopher and psychiatrist, Frantz Fanon, and brings it
to the screen. The film explores the use of anti-colonial violence as a
path to liberation. Fanon's book "Wretched of the Earth" has had a
historic impact on anti-colonial struggle around the world. Notable
students of his work are Malcolm X, Che Guevara, Steve Biko, and many more.
