Coates' darling status among liberal elites has a lot to do with the fact he's not a leftist. He portrays racism as a purely moral-metaphysical evil, completely detached from material conditions and the capitalist system.

Adolph Reed, a black Marxist professor has criticised Coates somewhere along these lines, for example
