Black Labor, White Wealth: The Search for Power and Economic Justice by Claud Anderson
Using history as a guide, Dr. Anderson explains how Blacks in America will only gain true liberation and power through economic empowerment. Dr. Anderson suggests, among other things, that Blacks must pool their resources, patronize Black-owned businesses, and practice group politics if Black people expect their material conditions to improve anytime soon. Insightful and informational, Black Labor, White Wealth is an unapologetic directive for Black people to control their own finances, institutions, and politics within their communities.
