From #Black Lives Matter To Black Liberation by Keeanga-Yamahtta Taylor
An urgent political analysis that situates the contemporary movement against police violence within the longer history of Black struggle in the United States, arguing that protests and high-profile reform campaigns are insufficient without a sustained, mass-based project that confronts racial capitalism and state power; it traces the roots of the uprisings, critiques the limits of the Obama era and mainstream reformism, and calls for linking anti-racist struggle to economic redistribution, democratic control, and the rebuilding of Black radical institutions to achieve genuine liberation.
