1. Black Marxism
The Making of the Black Radical Tradition
A trenchant critique of orthodox Marxism arguing that modern capitalism was constituted through racial systems and that a distinct Black radical tradition—rooted in African social formations, the Atlantic slave trade, colonialism, and Black resistance—cannot be fully explained by European class theory; it traces historical and cultural continuities of racial capitalism, analyzes rebellions and intellectual movements, and insists that race and culture are integral to understanding capitalist development and political struggle.
