So I was going to tweet about like "yay for more public options for services currently provided by corporations, but please make sure they're not racist" but then I countered to myself "but why should we assume corporations would be less racist than the government?"
And I just keep coming back to: the economically exploited are always, practically by definition, a majority. The racially oppressed, meanwhile, are minorities. Gotta think seriously about how these interests line up.

I mean... maybe if you’re talking internationally. Within nations, racial and ethnic minorities, even if you added all of the minority groups together, are generally numerical minorities. Like in America, white people are, what, 65% of people? (And like 70+% of political power?)
