Dr. Lara Sheehi: On Fanon

RU Center for Psychoanalysis welcomes Dr. Lara Sheehi: On Fanon

Lara will be kicking off the new academic year at RU Center with a presentation on Fanon!

Join us Monday, October 5th online at 1PM NYC (10AM Los Angeles/ 6PM London/ 19:00 Stockholm/ 20:00 Beirut) for 90 minutes. We will have plenty of time for questions and discussion.

This event will be recorded and made available for all those who register.

This will set us up nicely for what we’re diving into next: a close reading of From the Clinic to the Streets: Psychoanalysis for Revolutionary Futures (2026), beginning Saturday, November 14th.

She is the author of From Clinic to the Streets: Psychoanalysis for Revolutionary Futures (Pluto, 2026) and co-author with Stephen Sheehi of Psychoanalysis Under Occupation: Practicing Resistance in Palestine (Routledge, 2022). Lara is a member of the founding collective for the Institute for the Critical Study of Zionism and is on the advisory board for Forensic Architecture.
