Black Skin, White Masks ((French: Peau noire, masques blancs) is a 1952 book on the experience of the Black man and woman as they exist in a White dominate world (much of the book is written using “man” but context insists he prescribes this to both sexes). Here Frantz Fanon explores the psychological antecedents that inform the way Blacks negotiate their surroundings. In the English translation by Richard Philcox, Kwame Anthony Appiah’s foreword adds context to Fanon’s decidedly terse view of Blackness in the colonized world. Poetry, prose, speeches, and historical analyses are employed tactics to create a multi-layered call-to-action for both colonizer and colonized to open communication for real change.

Through this book, Fanon uses his lived experience as a politically activated person in both colonized and uncolonized locales as well as his academic background as a doctor of psychology. He noted lay breaks his book into two sections: perception and phenomenology.
