Ever wonder why we can't seem to rid the world of anti-Blackness? Or why there seems to be a strife between Black struggle and other oppressed groups? AfroPessimism may have some answers for you.
AfroPessimism is a meta-theory coined by Frank B Wilderson. It's mostly structured by his interpretations of Fanon's analysis of Black suffering and society, and also his experiences in South Africa.

AfroPessimism isn’t “new" per se, the analysis of Blackness that asserts Black people are not human is far from new. What is new is Wilderson's putting this theory into a name

AfroPessimism can describe many Black radical leftist analysis but the strife arises at AfroPessimism's answer to anti-Blackness.

AfroPessimism helps understand the disconnect between Black struggle and other oppressed groups.
