This book explained a lot of the unsaid microaggressions/macroaggressions things of anti-blackness that I sensed from not only the racist people I've interacted with but even movies (tho this book doesn't analyze movies)
Basically white settler colonizers especially on the plantations want to hunt & kill black people more than they want to go to war for rich white patriarchal capitalists.
When we look at antisemitism in Europe such as covered by "warrant for genocide" by norman cohn, those pogroms match up mostly with the anti-blackness in USA.
