 the Culture of Violence chronicles the development of the world capitalist 
 economy through the theft of indigenous land and African labor. It 
 documents the genocide unleashed against the cosmopolitan, prosperous and 
 technologically advanced societies that populated the world prior to 
 Columbus' raid on the Americas. Working from the leadership of Omali 
 Yeshitela's writings and speeches, Hess introduces her readers to a road 
 less traveled by present-day historical revisionists as she chronicles the 
 heroic resistance movements of black people in the U.S. and the violent 
 white response to that resistance. Finally, she shares an optimistic vision 
 for the future, calling for "white people to be a part of the future 
 through reparations to African people" and calls on "white society to align 
 its interests with the rest of humanity and be part of building a world 
 free of oppression and violence." Well-documented and footnoted, this book 
 also provides an extensive bibliography for students of history, political 
 economy and anti-colonial movements.\n\n\n\n
