Margaret Kimberley · Black Is Back Coalition: When Colonialism Turned on Whites, They Called it Fascism

When capitalism turns vicious in its treatment of white people’s rights, Europeans and Euro-Americans call it fascism, according to Omali Yeshitela, chairman of the Black is Back Coalition for Social Justice, Peace and Reparations. But “African people live under colonial domination all the time, and this thing” whites “refer to as fascism is simply an example of how colonial capitalism is seeping into the lives and experiences of the colonizers, themselves.” The Coalition is gearing up for its yearly Electoral Campaign School, set for April 10 and 11.
