Mamdani’s Election signals the Rise of Genocidal Marxism in American Politics

6 November 2025

The election of Zohran Mamdani as Mayor of New York City marks a turning point in American politics — the normalization of a genocidal anti-Western ideology rooted in the writings of of the French-Carribiean Marxist thinker, Frantz Fanon. What presents itself as a triumph of "diversity, equity, and inclusion" is, in reality, the infiltration of a diabolical doctrine that views Western civilization as inherently oppressive and calls for its violent dismantling.

Fanon’s philosophy — the belief that, as he put it, “life for the native can only spring up again out of the rotting corpse of the settler” — serves as the ideological inspiration for Marxist movements behind the South African Left's now infamous “Kill the Boer” campaign. Julius Malema's EFF openly identifies as Fanonian and that same ideology now informs the worldview of New York’s mayor-elect.

Shaped by the revolutionary Fanonianism of his father, Ugandan Marxist scholar Mahmood Mamdani, Zohran Mamdani completed his thesis appraising the work of Franz Fanon at the Bowdoin College in the city of Brunswick, Maine in 2014. New York's mayor-elect embodies the transposition of Fanonian Marxism from post-colonial Africa to the heart of the American metropolis.

This is not simply a cultural shift; it is a civilizational one. The genocidal logic that justified political violence in Africa has been repackaged in the language of “equity” and “decolonization” in this year's New York City mayoral race. Heritage America must recognize the danger before it metastasizes further: the replacement of our moral, religious, and constitutional order by a revolutionary creed that defines its mission as the destruction of the West itself.

The Pactum Institute calls upon American Christians and churches condemn and actively resist this ideological infiltration aimed at the destruction of the country and Western civilization as a whole — and to defend the heritage upon which America historically stood.
