Join OISE to celebrate 100 years of Frantz Fanon, a famous French Afro-Caribbean psychiatrist once described as "the most influential anticolonial thinker of his time", with a day of insightful keynote speakers, networking, and Caribbean foods.
2025 marks the 100th anniversary of the birth of Frantz Fanon, a French Afro-Caribbean psychiatrist, philosopher, and revolutionary activist once described as "the most influential anticolonial thinker of his time". Frantz Fanon died at just 36 years old, yet his work has had a significant impact on Post Colonial Theory, Black Studies, French Studies, Cultural Studies, Critical Race Theory, and Liberation Movements around the world.
The Frantz Fanon 100th Year Anniversary Symposium invites researchers, educators and community members for a day of learning, with special keynote speeches and Caribbean foods in honour of Frantz Fanon and Black History Month.
Presented by the Department of Applied Psychology & Human Development at the Ontario Institute for Studies in Education (OISE). All U of T community members are welcome.
