Race for Profit: To fight racism, fight capitalism

It is no strange coincidence that a decade of uprisings against white supremacy have shaken the US at the same time as a growing mass movement for economic justice. Since 2020, the ruling class has tried to pass off addressing personal biases as "anti-racism." But racism itself exists because the system of capitalism gives it shape.
