Margaret Kimberley · Anti-Blackness Spread by Global Capital

The ideology of anti-Blackness is both a prerequisite to the rise of capitalism and a product of its spread around the world, said Adam Bledsoe, a professor of Geography, Environment and Society at the University of Minnesota. “What we see today is very much a continuation of the colonial project,” said Bledsoe. Global capital ascribes “value to populations in a differential way,” with Black populations assigned the lowest value.
