They take aim at policing and mass incarceration, the racial partitioning of workplaces and residential communities, the expropriation and underdevelopment of Black populations at home and abroad. Scholars and activists increasingly regard these practices as essential technologies of capital accumulation, evidence that capitalist societies past and present enshrine racial inequality as a matter of course.0In Prophet of Discontent, Andrew J. Douglas and Jared A. Loggins invoke contemporary discourse on racial capitalism in a powerful reassessment of Martin Luther King Jr.'s thinking and legacy. Like today's organizers, King was more than a dreamer. He knew that his call for a "radical revolution of values" was complicated by the production and circulation of value under capitalism. He knew that the movement to build the beloved community required sophisticated analyses of capitalist imperialism, state violence, and racial formations, as well as unflinching solidarity with the struggles of the Black working class. Shining new light on King's largely implicit economic and political theories, and expanding appreciation of the Black radical tradition to which he belonged, Douglas and Loggins reconstruct, develop, and carry forward King's strikingly prescient critique of capitalist society. 505 0 $a The trouble is ... : On critique and tradition -- The other America: On the method of dissatisfaction -- Something is wrong with capitalism: On the revolution of values -- Showdown for nonviolence: On Black radicalism and the antipolitical -- Liberated grounds on which to gather: On Black study and the afterlives of King's critique. 600 10 $a King, Martin Luther, $c Jr., $d 1929-1968 $x Political and social views. 600 17 $a King, Martin Luther, $c Jr., $d 1929-1968. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00040023 650 0 $a Capitalism $x Social aspects $z United States. 651 0 $a United States $x Economic aspects. $x Economic aspects. 650 7 $a Race relations $x Economic aspects. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01086512 650 7 $a Capitalism $x Social aspects. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00846453 650 7 $a Political and social views. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01353986 651 7 $a United States. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204155 700 1 $a Loggins, Jared A., $e author. 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231117031225.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=5AC757D4DCB911EC8436229451ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
