Capitalist Nigger - by - Dr. Chika Onyeani
If I may quote one of many powerful lines that set this book apart from any other:
"A Capitalist Nigger does not dwell on the accomplishments of others.
He does not dwell on self-pity. He has no time for blaming the system of having denied him this or that.
The greatest thing about this age we live in is that whatever information you need, it is available to you."

An extract of Chika Onyeani's interview with Mail & Guardin during his visit to South Africa in 2005
People in Africa should not demand such high wages. The Indians don't mind working for peanuts as long as it is for the good of their communities.
But there are wealth-gap issues in both India and China.
Why must we concentrate on the negative? In India, the larger part of the population is still poor. So what? India is leading in a lot of ways. If you make a call to [a] credit card company, chances are it would be answered in India. Just because of the way they have been able to do the (sic) things. The reasons we have so many people going to Europe looking for work is because we have not been able to provide jobs for our people.
What would you say to comments that you are playing into the hands of racists by depicting black people as lazy and inefficient?
I don't care about what white people are thinking. It is what we think about ourselves. If we talk about it, perhaps we will stop doing it.
“Fearless writer, the book is a big mirror for the black community all over the world.”

Amazing book, one of the best I've ever read, a must read for ALL African people:
"A Capitalist Nigger is endowed with the highest level of intelligence. It is within his power to change the course of Black economic slavery to that of Black economic independence."
MalcolmJ says:
This book is super amazing (forget the 'controversial' title, etc), Dr Chika Onyeani just cuts to the chase. He is quite clear at the fact that he wants to steer the readers emotions.
He highlights a lot of negative attitudes and behavior of the African people that have to be changed. How we consume everything and produce nothing, in this age. Here are just some of my favorite lines from Capitalist Nigger:
"A Capitalist Nigger loves money. There is absolutely nothing wrong with the love of money. He loves to live a better life. He loves money to change the poverty and economic slavery of the Black race."
"It is better to die in the sustained efforts to reach your goals, than to die from fear of not even venturing."
"A Capitalist Nigger must demand his riches from himself and nobody else. He must have the discipline, the persistence, perseverance and unwavering belief in himself. A Capitalist Nigger is not a whiner, he is not a beggar, he doesn’t wait for the manna to fall from heaven for him because he understands that the manna never falls from heaven. His desire to accumulate money and wealth is carved in stone. Whatever barrier is standing in his way, he will break it."
"A Capitalist Nigger knows that information and knowledge are power. A Capitalist Nigger knows that unless you know your destination, there is no way you will be able to chart a course to reach it. He loves money and the accumulation of wealth. He is an economic warrior. Like a general before he sends his men into battle, he must have knowledge of the strength of the enemy if his men are to defeat him. He does not throw his men into battle, hoping that a miracle will happen. The battle for the accumulation of money and wealth is the battle that needs the greatest amount of preparation and the possession of enough knowledge to ensure victory.
Sorry, not my cup of tea.
Rate it, if you dare...
