After Black Lives Matter: Policing and Anti-Capitalist Struggle is a book by Cedric G. Johnson that weighs the successes and limitations of the Black Lives Matter movement and the socio-economic issues that continue to perpetuate a crisis of inequality.

The book is published by Verso Books in hardcover and paperback editions. The covers were designed by Chantal Jahchan with the front set in a single large size of tightly-set, all-caps HEX Franklin (using the HEX Franklin Tyght variable font for tight letterspacing), justified with inline images of protests. On the back covers and dustjacket flaps, smaller settings of HEX Franklin are paired with Heldane for paragraph text.
