Priscilla WallacePriscilla Judson Wallace is a doctoral candidate in the Department of History focusing on Transnational History and African American Studies. She received her BA in History from the University of Texas at El Paso. Her research interest explores the global impact of Black Radical Tradition on social and political resistance movements. She analyzes the visions, philosophies, politics, and social alliances of black radical intellectuals and activists who proposed diverse ways out of the constrictions of segregation and discrimination, particularly in North America and the Caribbean Islands. 

Her current research focuses on the black radical intellectual Frantz Fanon and his legendary interpretations on violence, decolonization, and the language of revolutionary wrath, along with his call for a new humanism. She analyzes how Fanon’s contribution to the theoretical understanding of the black consciousness has inspired resistance movements on a global scale from Algeria to Oakland. Priscilla’s situates the legacy of this great Caribbean internationalist within the broader Black Radical Tradition.
