Blueprint for Black Power details a master plan for the power revolution necessary for Black survival in the 21st century. Blueprint posit that an African American/Caribbean/ Pan-African bloc would be most potent for the generation and delivery of Black power in the United States and the World to counter White and Asian power networks. Wilson frames this imperative by deconstructing the U.S. elite power structure of government, political parties, think tanks, corporations, foundations, media, interest groups, banking and foreign investment particulars. Potentially strong Black institutions such as the church, media and think tanks; industry; collectives such as investment clubs and credit unions; rotating credit associations such as Afrikan- originated esusu, tontine and partner are analyzed. Pan-Afrikanism, Black Nationalism, ethnocentrism and reparation are assessed, often misused and underused financial institutions such as securities, mutual funds, stocks, bonds, underwriting, and incubators are advocated, thus elucidating oft-negated opportunities for economic empowerment.
