Frantz Fanon: Conflicts and Feminisms represents a bold examination of previous feminist criticisms of Fanon and argues that Fanons writings on women and resistance provide the formative kernels of a liberating praxis for women existing under colonial and neocolonial oppression. Sharpley-Whiting skillfully brings together approaches from a broad range of academic fields, including critical race theory, literary and cultural criticism, and psychoanalysis as she assesses the relevance of Fanons theories of oppression to a feminist politics of resistance.

[We] must guard against the danger of perpetuating the feudal tradition which holds sacred the superiority of the masculine element over the feminine. Women will have exactly the same place as men, not in the clauses of the constitution but in the life of every day: in the factory, at the school, and in the parliament. Frantz Fanon

Foreword
It is a current truism that a strange marriage (in fact, one in which battery is not an unknown feature) exists between feminism and black liberation politics, especially male revolutionary politics. Fortunately, much spoken and written work has addressed the sexism and misogyny of black or "Third World" male radicals. Unfortunately, the critiques are occasionally Pavlovian in their dismissals of male revolutionaries, fighting racism and imperialism, as uniformly counterfeminist. These Pavlovian leaps, like binary polarities, mask the complexities of liberation struggles against the oppressed status of colonized peoples. Say "black revolutionary" and the reflex response "patriarchal male" manifests as the negative image. But its appearance displaces the subtle analyses of gray areas and the fine lines differentiating anti-imperialists whose revolutionary praxis (despite their sexual politics) contributed to women's liberation from those revolutionaries who expressed little interest in women's rights. The shapes of profeminist male revolutionaries can only materialize in painstaking examinations of gender politics in antiracist, decolonization theory.
