Black Skin, White Masks by Frantz Fanon

2.0

This book was interesting but not really enjoyable or powerful. It certainly raised a lot of good points and its anecdotal evidence was meaningful and easy to follow, but it often fell victim to its own style, becoming too conversational yet discussing too serious of a topic. While I understood that Fanon was going for an easy to read, honest book, I feel that Black Skin, White Masks may have taken that concept too far. Also, some of the graphic descriptions were a little awkward...
