In the forum's lead essay, historian Donna Murch traces the origins of the opioid epidemic to Big Pharma's aggressive marketing to white suburbanites. The result, Murch shows, has been to construct a legal world of white drug addiction alongside an illicit drug war that has disproportionately targeted people of color.\u003cbr\u003e Other essays examine how the global surrogacy industry incentivizes the reproduction of whiteness while relying on the exploited labor of women of color, how black masculinity is commodified in racial capitalism, and how Wall Street exploited Caribbean populations to bankroll U.S. imperialism.\u003cbr\u003e Racist logic, this issue shows, continues to pervade our society, including its nominally colorblind business practices. Contributors not only explore the institutional structures that profit from black suffering, but also point the way to racial justice.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eDonna Murch, Associate Professor of History at Rutgers University, is the author of \u003ci\u003eLiving for the City: Migration, Education, and the Rise of the Black Panther Party in Oakland \u003c\/i\u003eand the forthcoming \u003ci\u003eAssata Taught Me: State Violence, Mass Incarceration, and the Movement for Black Lives\u003c\/i\u003e. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eDonna Murch, Associate Professor of History at Rutgers University, is the author of \u003ci\u003eLiving for the City: Migration, Education, and the Rise of the Black Panther Party in Oakland \u003c\/i\u003eand the forthcoming \u003ci\u003eAssata Taught Me: State Violence, Mass Incarceration, and the Movement for Black Lives\u003c\/i\u003e.\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 128\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.4 x 10.2 x 6.5 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e October 03, 2023\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48265446719737,"sku":"9781946511362","price":16.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0789\/2782\/3097\/files\/OAiuouy6gQ9781946511362.webp?v=1775657576","url":"https:\/\/bookscloud.io\/products\/racist-logic-paperback","provider":"BooksCloud Book Dropshipping","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
