We are living in a very peculiar time. You didn't need me to tell you
that. With Donald Trump leading on one side and a 74-year-old man who
has proclaimed to be a democratic socialist for decades competing on the
other, it's clear that if we were ever going to try something truly
revolutionary, now would be the time to do so.
I'll leave you with these closing words from Michelle Alexander:
"Maybe we’ll all continue to play along and pretend that we don’t know
how it will turn out in the end. Hopefully, one day, we’ll muster the
courage to join together in a revolutionary movement with people of all
colors who believe that basic human rights and economic, racial, and
gender justice are not unreasonable, pie-in-the-sky goals. After decades
of getting played, the sleeping giant just might wake up, stretch its
limbs, and tell both parties: Game over. Move aside. It’s time to
reshuffle this deck."
