I don't particularly -- but it is the only hope. Your moralizing leads to utter despair rather than merely my bleak outlook. What I speak of *may* happen, though I won't hold my breath, while what you speak of belongs to fantasy.
There will be no revolutionary movement in the U.S. except one organized around the fight against white and male supremacy within the working class -- which in turn depends on a strong and independent black movement. I'm not saying that will happen -- I'm just saying that no other route to revolution is possible. I'm not saying that revolution is possible (and whether it is desirable or not is a merely academic question) but only that it is necessary for human survival.
I don't really take a very cheerful view of the future.
