In particular, I am interested here in how arguments about culture function, per Fanon's insight, as deep political engagement: the reproduction of society is at stake in cultural change and conservation. So, what does this mean for revolutionary practice? It means embracing cultural struggle as a foundational struggle. ","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/lw6o0WdZmlj6gtn6vop2ADRfgH-rBiKo1HN-19V_DjA/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS9zaG93/LzM4Mzg2LzE2NzUy/ODQwODMtYXJ0d29y/ay5qcGc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
