A self-identified "Pan-Africanist" professor, said that White capitalist America needed to be dismantled and called the stock market "racist."
Melina Abdullah is a professor of Pan-African Studies at California State University. Her role in academia is "intrinsically linked to broader struggles for the liberation of oppressed people." She co-founded and is active in the Los Angeles Black Lives Matter chapter and is currently suing the national branch for allegedly siphoning off $10 million for a personal consulting agency.
Abdullah believes that capitalism needs to be dismantled and said that it was designed to oppress Black people.
"When we feed capitalism, we feed racism," she said in a 2020 interview on the Uproxx podcast 'People's Party With Talib Kweli.' Abdullah has also claimed that "white capitalism feeds itself through the exploitation of Africa and Black people."
"Time to boycott White capitalism and build black community," she added.
"So this world is intentionally and deliberately created in this way, right? So every system that we live under, it's not like we stumbled into these systems that put Black people at the bottom of every single social, political and economic measure... These are designed intentionally to produce these outcomes… And so it's important that as we think about these systems and the ways in which these systems seize upon us, prey upon us, exploit us, that we not submit to those systems, the only way we preserve our sanity and humanity is by resisting those systems and becoming abolitionist in our approach," she said.
The California professor added that she believed the stock market was racist, while adding that she knew nothing about the stock market.

Another expert.
Imagine America today if we just picked our own cotton
if it were not for capitalism, this guy would still be living in a mud hut!
But, I hope he gets his wish when the Chinese swoop in :)
LMAO
Racist bi!ch.
So if white capitalism is so racist, STOP PAYING THE B!TCH and she can work for FREE. “These” people need to put up or SHUT UP.
Very good point. Unfortunately the communists would still call us racist and evil because there were no blacks in America. What is most galling is how ungrateful she is for Affirmative Action
It would be interesting to hear the professor explain the poverty and famine found in tribal African countries. I’m sure she’d blame us for that too.
Reality itself is racist, isn't it?
That's why the Left wants to redefine reality.
Merit, hard work, punctuality, conscientiousness, math, science. They are all racist constructs.
Can you imagine what the world would look like if these nincompoops could get rid of "racism"?
Here's what their utopia would look like:
Maybe she likes mud huts.
Marxist/Communist
Well she ought to ask some of the black million and billionaires their opinions.
Seriously, Melina Abdullah is cordially invited to emigrate to the continent where her ancestors lived. I hear Liberia is doing such a good job.
That’s what’s left of Rodeo Drive. If you look closely you can still see the Hollywood Walk of Fame peeking out from under the pile of human feces.
Many academics are Marxists. They will rattle on about capitalism forever.
Marxism has been discredited in the 20th century, but the Marxists refuse to believe it.
The guy sounds like Castro in the early-mid 50s.
lotsa muslims in BLM so of course they’d be against capitalism
Entitled POCs depend on Whitey going out to work to pay taxes that are taken to support POCs. The democrat party has deliberately made POCs dependent and discouraged them from having a job.
So, if you tear down capitalism, the POCs will have no source of income.
She could move to South Africa. They are having electrical power rationing there due to poor maintenance of their grid. She could see what it is like to live in the dark.
Please list all the inventions that black women have made.
Then do white men.
Awe let’s try communism, 100 million people killed over 100 years and has failed every where it is tried. But this women who understands zero about history or economics is all for it. Sounds like a plan
