Capital has always been a tool of racism. From colonialism to the Tulsa Race Riots to the Holocaust to the modern pearl clutching at China’s economic status. There is no racially just capitalism, it’s a seed of racism planted into racist soil and watered with racism. It’s not even covert either, capitalism emerged in the same time as race “science” and the justification for both are exactly as shoddy and presumptive of white superiority as you’d imagine. If you want the world to be racially just, capitalism has to go first and foremost before any other progress can be made.
