How Capitalism Underdeveloped Black America is a classic study of racism and class in the United States. It has become a standard text for courses in American politics and history, and has been central to the education of thousands of political activists since the 1980s, selling more than 30,000 copies in its first edition.
In this updated and significantly expanded edition, Marable examines developments in the political economy of racism in the United States and assesses shifts in the American political terrain since the first edition was published. Marable brilliantly demonstrates how capitalism not only causes socioeconomic injustice, but requires it: "The current economic amnesia of the West is therefore no accident, because it reveals the true roots of massive exploitation and human degradation upon which the current world order rests."- South End Press
