    Have just started Wretched of the Earth as well. What did you think of the preface by Jean- Paul Satre?

      I really don't have strong feelings about it, other than I think it's unnecessary and doesn't really add anything to the book (as Sartre also states). I've heard that Fanon himself didn't like it, the passage about Sartre "stealing it to make Europe better" feels pretty weird, but ultimately I don't mind it.
