Margaret Kimberley · “The State” and “Racial Capitalism” to Blame for Anti-Black Violence in UK

After long study, an anti-racial violence Monitoring Group found that anti-Black violence in the UK is driven mainly by “the police and other mechanisms of the state,” said Adam Elliott-Cooper, a Research Associate at the University of Greenwich and anti-racial violence activist and scholar. “Racial capitalism is the most urgent issue,” said Elliott-Cooper, who notes that Cedric Robinson was living in London when he wrote “Black Marxism: The Making of the Black Radical Tradition,” which introduced the term “racial capitalism.”
