AExistentialism
BHumanism
CNon-violence ✓ Correct
DPsychoanalysis
Correct answer: (C) Non-violence — Non-violence cannot be associated with Frantz Fanon.
Explanation
★Non-violence cannot be associated with Frantz Fanon.
★Fanon did not reject violence as a means to overthrow colonial rule.
★In The Wretched of the Earth he saw revolutionary violence as a cleansing, liberating force.
★He drew on existentialism, especially Sartre, to argue for the colonised subject's freedom.
★His thought is deeply humanist, aimed at restoring the full humanity of the colonised.
★He used psychoanalysis to expose the mental wounds inflicted by racism and colonialism.
★So only non-violence stands against Fanon's revolutionary outlook.
