So sooner or later "convert the white working class" I suppose will have to happen? I can't see Panera Bread whites nationalizing capital markets for me, so.
BUT I think it's *very important* (flashing lights, sirens, thunderbolts and lightning important) that the white working class be converted on consciously socially progressive terms. An alliance of convenience to stop Trump? Sure. A long-term governing coalition? I doubt it.
Because the key is---I ardently hope for a MAJOR restructuring of America in my lifetime. Probably multiple Constitutional amendments major at the very least. But when you go into a restructure, your coalition is KEY.
It's very easy to come out of a big restructuring process more racist (or more sexist, or more classist, or more capitalist, or more homophobic, etc., etc.,) than you went in.
And like... understand that I see any American restructuring not as The Justice We All Want but as a truce between competing interests (ideally as a structure for those competing interests that resists hegemony).
But I think the only way that happens in a way that doesn't do more harm than good to a lot of social groups is to have a very broad coalition that is seriously and explicitly committed to each other, not along class as a single organizing center but as intersectional solidarity.
