The Power of Darkness is a profound exploration of the hidden forces and dark histories that have shaped modern society. This meticulously researched book delves into the roots of capitalism, revealing a foundation built on terror, violence, and the brutal exploitation of enslaved people in America's South. It exposes slavery as the engine driving immense wealth into the hands of plantation owners and instant millionaires, all underpinned by the myth of white supremacy. This systemic exploitation established economic divides that remain visible today.
Through detailed historical accounts, The Power of Darkness uncovers the insidious mix of greed, psychological manipulation, and physical brutality that has led to a society often blinded by moral indifference. The book traces secret government actions that redirected social justice efforts and the enduring impact of the Civil War, illustrating a chilling continuity of authoritarianism and social inequality.
The narrative extends into the Cold War, where global geopolitics forced America to confront civil equality as Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.'s revolutionary values clashed with imperialist interests. The book also addresses the 1980s authoritarianism and social inequality revealing how covert government actions flooded American inner cities with drugs, devastating Black communities and undermining activist movements.
Central America's bloody conflicts, Argentina's "dirty wars," and South Africa's struggle to end apartheid further underscore the global consequences of foreign policies steeped in anti-communist zeal and racial oppression. The exploitation of Africa's resources by the Anglo-White power structure highlights a persistent pattern of manipulation and dependency, entrapping the continent in cycles of exploitation.
