Rashid Khalidi receives 2025 Frantz Fanon Lifetime Achievement Award
Rashid Khalidi, Edward Said Professor Emeritus of Modern Arab Studies, has been awarded the 2025 Frantz Fanon Lifetime Achievement Award by the Caribbean Philosophical Association.
The Caribbean Philosophical Association is honoring the recipients for the importance of their work for the association’s ongoing project of “Shifting the Geography of Reason.” In the words of 2014’s Guillén Lifetime Achievement Laureate Ngũgĩ wa Thiong’o:
[We] celebrate the new recipients of the awards; sisi kwa sisi (we for us/for one another/from us to us), we used to say in Kiswahili.
This year’s recipients include a global community of intellectuals whose careers address their namesakes’ legacies as activist intellectuals of high artistic, philosophical, political, scholarly, and scientific integrity and value.
