As Keeanga-Yamahtta Taylor says:
But it does mean that there is intense insecurity in this country. Social dislocation means people don’t know where they fit. Immigration gets the blame. It’s totally racist and it is about class and economics. It is both at the same time. Race and class are entwined in this country, and the constant efforts to separate the two create confusion.
But that’s why we need a fucking political party that can challenge that way of thinking. A party that can argue with this framework. Instead, the argument is just ceded to the right….
These clowns in Congress are laughing all the way to the bank as they do the bidding for, to be crass, the capitalist class that is running things!
