‘Provocative, daring, acerbic but truthful – Capitalist Nigger
exposes the endemic frailties that debilitate and dehumanize the
Black race – into dependency, complacency, low esteem and
inaction – as if these were divinely ordained. Onyeani’s tirade is
angry but affectionate; it is a tongue-lashing but genuinely
concerned about the fate of his race. As usual in life, this kind of
truth scathes the ears. After all, charity begins at home with one’s
own race.’ –Dr Michael C Malherbe, Professor & Chair, Africana
Studies/Humanities Department, Hostos Community College of the
City of New York

‘This is a book of passionate outrage and collective self-reproach.
The beginning of self-reform is self-criticism. This author manifests
a combination of anguish, anger and patriotism.’ –Ali A Mazrui, D
Phil (Oxon), Albert Schweitzer Professor in the Humanities, Director
of Global Cultural Studies, Binghampton University

Capitalist Nigger excels as an explosive and jarring of the Black race. The book asserts that the Negroid race, as naturally endowed as any other, is culpably a non-productive race. The Black race is a consumer race and depends on other communities for its culture, its language, its feeding, and its clothing. Despite enormous natural resources, Blacks are economic slaves because they lack the ‘devilmay-care’ attitude and ‘killer-instinct’ of the Caucasian, as well as the spider web mentality of the Asian. Capitalist Nigger contends that only as ‘Economic Warriors’, employing the ‘Spider Web Economic Doctrine’, can the Black race escape from their victim mentality.
