Black Liberation and the Foundations of Social Control

Andrew Gavin Marshall

American Journal of Economics and Sociology, 2015, vol. 74, issue 4, 775-795

Abstract: In regards to funding for the civil rights and black power movements in the United States, the major philanthropic foundations pursued their primary goals of social engineering and implementation of reforms designed to establish and maintain social control. They operated in the ultimate interests of the wealthy corporate and financial interests that dominated foundation boards and founders, promoting incremental reforms in order to secure their own long-term systemic interests.
