CAPITALIST NIGGER

written by one Chika Onyeani, Capitalist Nigger, A spider web doctrine,published by Jonathan Ball Publishers[Johannesburg and Cape Town] 2000 is a book I will describe as infectious.Having read the book you do not come away unscathed whether you are a melanin man [black man] or caucasian man[white man].the pages are really full of venom.There are lessons to be learnt in the book.The black man is challenged to stand up and carve a niche for himself where the caucasian hegemony is quite insidious

I must confess that the book smote me in much the same way that 'Decolonising the mind' by Ngugi Wa Thiong'o did.

For how long shall we black people be bound in shackles and chains?In his provocative way Chika Onyeani proffers his 'Capitalist Nigger doctrine.Hey!
