This work highlights the Black American community's transition from a pathological-pathogenic community to an intersectional one, a model which dominates the contemporary global order. The work posits that the constitution of Black American communities and their identities have been the product of their relations to the means and mode of production within the Protestant Ethic and the spirit of capitalism. Contemporarily, their integration is marked by their transition from a pathological-pathogenic community to a neoliberal intersectional one dominated by their youth, athletes, women, and queer members. Their images and practices, especially those of the working class, overrepresented in the media industrial complex, are then used instruments of capitalism, i.e., rentier oligarchs, to assimilate other Black people into the structure and processes of the neoliberal global order under American hegemony in order to generate surplus value.
