The integration of America, which is an amoral process, I think is inevitable at this point. It is perhaps inconvenient for some conservative white Americans that they managed to forestall the integration of African Americans until globalization...
And I think most people exist in between wanting to negotiate better terms of integration and wanting a radical end to oppression. Personally—what I want is the most aggressive, radical terms of integration we can possibly manage, with as much space for liberation as possible.

But still, that’s very different than liberation. Anyway, we’ve got a lot of social movements in America that gain their force from changing material circumstances.

And I’m still trying to think though how we harness that energy for social change vs how we use the growing power of marginalized people towards revolutionary ends. I don’t know. I really, really, really don’t know.
