‘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
