Episode Details

The New Discourses Podcast with James Lindsay, Episode 105 We hear so much about "decolonization" nowadays. Whether it's decolonizing the curriculum, decolonizing science, decolonizing Shakespeare, decolonizing the nation, or whatever; whether it's decolonizing education following from Joe Kincheloe's project on Paulo Freire; wherever we hear it, it means something. So it can be better understood, in this episode of the New Discourses Podcast, host James Lindsay takes a dive into one of the key early texts of decolonization and Postcolonial Theory: Frantz Fanon's legendary The Wretched of the Earth (https://amzn.to/3CgWNFr). Fanon minces no words, writing in the first sentence, "whatever may be the headings used or the new formulas introduced, decolonization is always a violent phenomenon." Join James to learn more about these roots and what they represent.
