The Dialectic of Defeat: An Interview with Rupert Lewis

Each generation must out of relative obscurity discover its mission, fulfi ll it, or betray it. . . . We must rid ourselves of the habit, now that we are in the thick of the fi ght, of minimizing the action of our fathers or of feigning incomprehension when considering their silence and passivity. . ey fought as well as they could, with the arms that they possessed then; and if the echoes of their struggle have not resounded in the international arena, we must realize that the reason for this silence lies less in their lack of heroism than in the fundamentally diff erent international situation of our time. —Frantz Fanon
