Frantz Fanon's Black Skin, White Masks offers a radical analysis of the psychological effects of colonization on the colonized. Born in 1925 on the island of Martinique - at the time a French colony - Fanon witnessed firsthand the abuses of white colonizers and the system's effects on his country.

While he was undoubtedly a man of learning, his ideas have been tested upon the field of life.

With this in mind, both the author and the climate of his time have been taken into account in a summary that precedes the narration of the full text.
