Thanks. Maybe I actually read it long time ago. I was reading a lot of these books for a while. If you like these types I also recommend

https://www.amazon.com/Mystery-Capital-Capitalism-Triumphs-Everywhere/dp/0465016154

A good take problems for economic growth in many developing countries.

And this book by Rifkin which among other things explores why things like social democracy never gained ground in the US but did in Europe:

I also seem to remember this one had some important criticism of capitalism fanboyism:

https://www.amazon.com/Things-They-Dont-About-Capitalism/dp/1608193381

But yeah a lot one can read to counter the racism narrative but it requires reading, and the racism narrative is unfortunately much easier to sell with short slogans and arguments. I ponder a lot how yo counter it since it requires getting people to study and learn. Not an easy thing.
