Revolutionary nationalism and oppression

PROMPT:
Ian Baucom argues that the Atlantic slave trade objectified and devalued peoples of African descent by financializing their existence through a historical process that established the basis of modern capitalism. The Black Panthers critiqued Western society’s reliance on capitalism to sustain racialized inequities and oppression by employing an anti-colonialist and anti-capitalist movement based on the doctrine of “revolutionary nationalism.” Using Baucom’s Specters of the Atlantic and Sean L. Malloy’s Out of Oakland, evaluate and analyze the Black Panthers’ use of revolutionary nationalism. To what extent are the oppressions encountered by Black Americans and peoples of African descent a result of the links between racism and capitalism?
