Abstract: This paper discusses the different ways, uses and appropriations of the thought of Frantz \nFanon in Brazil between the 1950s and the present day. The study approaches Wynter (1999) \nand Gordon (2015) to identify the perspective of sociogenesis the structural axis of fanoniano \ntheoretical status, and Hall (1996) and Sekyi-Otu (1996) to recognize the author's thought the \nopen joint and not completed theoretical and various political elements. From this evidence, it \nargues that the legacy of Fanon is claimed differently by different theoretical aspects, and \nsometimes conflicting. In Brazil, the reception of Fanon occurred under the influence of the \nthird Worldism revolutionary and its focus on Les Damnés de la terre. Providing both the \nplayers connected to the left as readers more attuned to the black movement, a guided \nappropriation the polarization between colonizer and colonized and affirmation of identity \n(national or black) as opposed to colonization. But the contemporary period, marked by a \ngrowing interest in the reflections of Fanon, is structured by a greater diversity of approaches \nand theoretical focus, setting six sub-fields: 1.Estudos Postcolonial and the Diaspora; 2. \nNegritude; 3. Decolonial; 4. Whiteness; 5. Psychology; 6. National Ethos.
