Robert Allen: Black awakening in capitalist America
17. May 2017 20:45
“In the United States today a program of domestic neo-colonialism
is rapidly advancing. It was designed to counter the potentially
revolutionary thrust of the recent black rebellions in major cities
across the county. The program was formulated by America’s
corporate elite—the major owners, managers, and directors of
the giant corporations, banks, and foundations which increasingly
dominate the society as a while—because they believe that the urban
revolts pose a serious threat to economic and social stability.
The corporations are attempting with considerable success to co-opt
the black power movement. Their strategy is to equate black power
with black capitalism.”
