How exactly is “black power” in the context of historical systematic oppression of black people, contrary to anticapitalism? Both can be fought for simultaneously

my take: there’s no class struggle without recognition of other oppressions, such as those of women, black people, indigenous people, immigrants, queer and so on. because they can happen even within a revolutionary context.

this is… ok. But lets be real here what even is “black power” in this context and why is being compared to “white power” because we know what that is, its white supremacy its racism and its oppression and its a tool that the ruling class controls and has used plenty and which white people have benefited from happily, but “black supremacy” isnt a thing besides a few powerless nutters and even if it was it would have no institutional or state power behind it like white supremacy. No, in reality “black power” is the power to resists oppression and even to resist capitalism so why is it being compared to “white power” why is it being put down?
