Interview with Dr. Derek Hook: Fanon, Psychoanalysis, and Critical Decolonial Psychology

What explains the "madness" of Race? Its excessive and violent intensities? Its tenacious persistence beyond the economic interests of the ruling class? Any serious analysis of Race must take into account its contradictory, libidinal, and bodily aspects (in addition to discursive and economic analysis). To this end, Dr. Hook takes his readers and us on a body-horroresque journey through the nightmarish contradictions of race, where erotic charge and murderous hatred feed one another, where fantasy disrupts the body, and where racism sinks its teeth into the flesh.

We are excited to bring you this interview with Dr. Derek Hook concerning all of this and more. Enjoy!
