Frantz Fanon was a very well educated man that openly protested and fought against colonization. Frantz Fanon had the interesting tactic that violence against the oppressor was the ideal way to unify the colonized people. He used this unification to fight for independence against the colonizers. In this article we are able to see one of the speeches he gave and we clearly see that he is addressing the people to listen to him, to take action against and stop letting themselves be controlled. He is able to use very sophisticated rhetoric to convince his audience. I found it very interesting to see how he phrases things to make himself more credible. No just how he said it, but what he said as well was planned out very scholarly. All of his supporting evidence was true and clear stated. The language style he spoke in was very sophisticated and made the audience view him as the leader they needed.
Even though I do not believe that violence is the necessary method that needed to be used to unify the people to defend themselves against colonizers, I think Frantz did an extremely good job using rhetoric to convince the people that it was.
