"While we should mobilise to restrain offenders, we must begin to realise that only the community will effectively deal with the matter. Not the racist Capitalist system, with its repressive police, courts and prisons."

Lorenzo Komboa Ervin was born on July 2, 1947 in the United States. Known for his active contributions to various political movements including Civil Rights, Ervin was a significant voice against racism. His material dissection of racial dynamics and systems of power shed a new light on the nature of oppression.
Ervin wrote 'Anarchism and the Black Revolution'; a book that vocalizes his ideas revolving black anarchism and anti-racism. His work aimed to underscore the interconnected nature of all forms of oppression, specifically drawing attention to the societal and systemic elements of racism. Ervin's thoughts greatly contributed to the Anarchist movement. He has conceived of an anarchism that is firmly rooted in the material conditions and social history of black people, traversing the boundaries of classical anarchism.
