Abstract
The Authoritarian Coup of Donald Trump's second presidency forecasts a deepening of internal neo-colonialism of the Black worker in the United States. This article critiques the political economy of the Black worker from 2015-2025 in order to demonstrate that the Black worker in the U.S. is in a New Nadir and that the Trump regime actively seeks to deepen the Nadir by robbing the working-class grassroots of resources necessary to survive and resist racial oppression.
