In my research I stumbled upon on and selected a quote from this article, “A Black Epistemology for the Social and Solidarity Economy” written by Caroline Shenaz Hossein, Associate Professor of Business and Society, Department of Social Science, York University, Ontario Canada. “Although the ills of neoliberal variants of capitalism are known, the diverse economies in which Black folk engage are less understood. Forcing White and European ideas on a non-White experience is limited in what it can do effect social change. Nor can we sever the Western ideologies in the field because it is this very bias why the Black radical tradition and other Black theories come into being. There is no shortage of Black writings on solidarity economics and they can now be housed in Black social economy.
