Is Racism Enabled by Capitalism, or the State? | The Libertarian Institute

John Weeks discusses Racism and Capitalism in his latest article.
"The libertarian frame of reference is confronted by the fact that people believe in the state. They believe in its necessity, its inevitability, and its righteousness. At worst, the state is a black box of potential benevolence. At best it is a “shining city upon a hill,” delivering peace and justice and also lower grocery prices. When people perceive injustice, they are programmed to trace it anywhere but the blood-soaked marble steps of state malevolence."
