Myth of Black Capitalism

Earl Ofari Hutchinson has been a lifelong fighter in the movement for Black Lives. When Earl Ofari wrote The Myth of Black Capitalism, he was just twenty-three, married, and held a degree in psychology from California State College in L.A., where he was active in the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee and instrumental in setting up one of North America's first Black student unions. At the time, he had been already published in such publications as The Guardian and Los Angeles Free Press, and had crafted pamphlets for the Radical Education Project. Since then he has written extensively on race and politics for the Los Angeles Times, Newsday, The Washington Post, The Christian Science Monitor, Chicago Tribune, and The Baltimore Sun and become a nationally acclaimed author and social issues commentator. Today Hutchinson hosts the live call-in program The Hutchinson Report on Pacifica Radio.
