Ranging widely across time, spheres, and data, this work, at once polemical and analytical, continues to offer an account of inequality at the intersection of class, gender, and race that has yet to be matched. Some three decades on, How Capitalism Underdeveloped Black America remains a book that provokes, informs, and motivates.” —Ira Katznelson, Ruggles Professor of Political Science and History, Columbia University  “A cohesive portrait of black America.” —Cornel West  PRAISE FOR THE AUTHOR:      “Manning was an unflinching and breathtakingly prolific scholar whose commitments to racial, economic, gender, and international justice were unparalleled. … There are two generations of African-American scholars who will remember him as much for the mentor he was to us as for the research legacy he leaves. … When I think of Manning himself it is as a great well — possessing reserves of energy, intellect and commitment I have never before witnessed.” —Melissa Harris-Perry, MSNBC  “A groundbreaking historian … one of America’s truest public intellectuals.” —John Nichols, The Nation     \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePreface How Capitalism Underdeveloped Black America A Critical Assessment Introduction to the First Edition  Part 1 The Black Majority  Chapter 1 The Crisis of the Black Working Class Chapter 2 The Black Poor Chapter 3 Grounding with My Sisters Chapter 4 Black Prisoners and Punishment in a Racist\/Capitalist State  Part 2 The Black Elite  Chapter 5 Black Capitalism Chapter 6 Black Brahmins Chapter 7 The Ambiguous Politics of the Black Church Chapter 8 The Destruction of Black Education  Part 3 A Question of Genocide  Chapter 9 The Meaning of Racist Violence in Late Capitalism Chapter 10 Conclusion: Towards a Socialist America","brand":"Haymarket Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51020110528855,"sku":"9781608465118","price":17.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9781608465118.jpg?v=1750782447","url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/how-capitalism-underdeveloped-black-america-problems-in-race-political-economy-and-society-9781608465118","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
