The Wretched of the Earth - Frantz Fanon: On Violence and Spontaneity
Red Menace
The Lumpin Proletariat
The term was coined by Marx in a critique of Max Sterner. Fanon identifies the rural peasantry as these so-called rogue members of the colonial proletariat. He argues that it is these rural peasants who are forced into the peripheries of urban centers and therefore into shanty towns and ghettos through the process of colonialism which make up the lumpin proletariat. This general idea that the lumpin proletariat, far from being excluded from revolution, can actually play a decisive role within it has been carried on to this day in hip hopby artists like bamboo, earth gang, dead press,. killer mike and many more.
