Yet racism persists: Jim Crow replaced racial slavery, and mass incarceration has replaced Jim Crow. Why? In this open access book Paul Gomberg argues that racism is functional for capitalism, supplying low-wage, vulnerable labor and driving down conditions for \u003ci\u003eall\u003c\/i\u003e workers. How can anti-racists put an end to racist society? Gomberg argues for race-centered Marxism: anti-racism must lead working-class struggle, but racism will end only in a communist society that creates opportunity for all. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003eThe ebook editions of this book are available open access under a CC BY-NC-ND 4.0 licence on bloomsburycollections.com\u003c\/i\u003e","brand":"Atlantic Books","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46438313590935,"sku":"9781350258013","price":3718.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9781350258013.webp?v=1769107094","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/anti-racism-as-communism-9781350258013","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
