This was good. Only thing I would say, however, I think it might be a bit incorrect to localize this soley with respect to Wrecthed of the Earth, specifically the chapters on National Consciosness and National Culture. It is more accurate to situate this schism between Fanon and Cesaire in Black Skin, White Masks, particularly chapter five where Fanon first works through a substantial critique of Negritude (as well as existential phenomenology), providing an overall study of the European conceit of blackness prior to 20th century decolonization efforts. Also, an important 3rd figure/perspective who you don't mention here which is Sartre. Much of this "debate" is largely born out Sartre's comments in Black Orephus, where he basically considers Negritude, as literary movement, as dialetical response against the anti-racism of a white supremacy society. Insofar as it attempts to define and curate an almost single black identity and black project, for Sartre Negritude to fails account for the many dimensions of black experince (their relationship to class especially). While Fanon definitely has an issue with some the implications of Sartre comments, it does go on to really impact his approach to race and racism. His criticism of how Negritutde and black literally movements longs for an unattainable past, who it fails to consider the different conditions for afro-colonized peoples around the world, etc these are matters the he leaves on the table first in Black Skin, White Masks, and then expands on the Wretched of the Earth particularly with the material you mention here, but also in the first chapter on Violence where discusses the problem of Manichaeism. I know you covered this in your video on the BS,WM, but I think it is really really important that these threads you raise here from WOTE be woven together succinctly with Fanon's earlier analysis to better articulate the project of his body of work.

That was great. You're very concise.
Hey David can you please do a video on the similarity and difference between the perspectives or positions of Latour and Bourdieu.
I wish you could also make a video on how Sarte and Bhabha's preface to The Wretched of the Earth has completely misrepresented Fanon's ideas/
lmao yeah lol
@@tcmackgeorges12 Don;t get me wrong. This is a great video. Just wish there would be another one on Sarte and Fanon
@@LitArtCulture That itself would be a really lofty project, a lot to account for both in WOTE and BS,WM
What, Sartre misrepresenting someone's ideas? Say it isn't so! 😄

Can you also comment on how these ideas are being appropriated by current liberal academia and stripped of their crucial anti-capitalist drive
Very interesting
