Black Anarchism, Anarkata or Afro-anarchism is an anarchist and culturally centrist ideology, which claims that the state has never treated Black Americans as full citizens, so, by default, African Americans are in a state of anarchy and in opposition with the state.
History
Black Anarchism, as a political ideology, came to prominence during the early 20th century, during the rise of the anarchist movement in the United States. Black activists started to become members of the anarchist movement, which was mostly dominated by white men. Black anarchists attempted to connect the struggle against authoritarianism and capitalism to the struggle against racism.
Black anarchism was developed by Lucy Parsons, an American anarchist activist. She advocated for black self-determination and armed self-defense against racism. Parsons commonly criticized the anarchist movement for its failure to address civil rights issues.
After World War 2, anarcho-pacifism gained popularity in black anarchist circles. This was boosted by the nonviolent methods of the aforementioned civil rights movement. Anti-authortarianism gained popularity within the movement, and thus many civil rights organizations adopted black anarchism as a ideology.
Black anarchism gained popularity in many black nationalist movements in the 1960s, such as the Black Panther Party. Members of the BPP became angered with the supposed oligarchization of the party leadership. This led to some party members becoming radicalized, and shifting towards black anarchism. Black liberation movements such as the MOVE organization began to embrace black anarchism as part of their ideologies.
After the 20th century, Black anarchism decreased in popularity among both anarchists and black nationalists. However, scattered black anarchist movements still exist to this day.
