Anticolonial and US civil rights struggles form one interconnected antiracist mobilization.

Evidence

If abolitionism was the first broad antiracist mobilization, the anticolonial and civil rights struggles amounted to the second. The two – a global anticolonial struggle figured most visibly in Africa and Asia, and the civil rights struggles in the United States – can be thought together here precisely because they are so deeply interconnected historically and conceptually, geopolitically and existentially. This connection should come as no surprise. Colonialism was factored constitutively around racial conception and configuration. How colonizing metropoles and their agents thought about race determined directly the very structures of colonial order and arrangement. — David Theo Goldberg, The Threat of Race, 90
