What sense does it make for a Black man to be a Marxist? He is still abandoning one form of Western Philosophy for another one. Communism is still a Western product. If we gon' be African then do it.

Actually he wasn't a marxist. Scientific socialism is the politics that he identified with. As you may be aware, the principles of socialism was around long before Karl Marx.

You mean the countries that are being ran by drug cartells? Socialism or better yet Equality is of the spirit or mindset of individuals. Equality isn't based on anything financial. The disparity between the rich and poor is just a reflection of how people that rich feel they owe nothing to people that they legally rob from.

@1polymath (sorry for replying to such as old post) agreed Communism and capitalism are indeed Western thought and culture. Remember culture is the instrument of socialization and survival for a people. Real revolution has to be African centered.
