it's a goofy game that doesn't accomplish very much:
one could say anarchist aren't interested in recruiting blacks therefore they don't care about them then one could respond well last i checked i din't see any socialist vanguard party offices in the projects....they're are just recruiting blacks that can afford to go to college.
etc. etc. etc. etc. etc.
this is not going anywhere

i didn't tell you how not to speak about race. i was just curious why someone would bring up the 'whiteness' of anarchism as i guess a criticism if it's not due to racism. it just seems your 'critique' is just that anarchists tend to be white..... are you saying nothing caucasians do is valid unless minorities are involved? it's just a question........ i think you brought up socialists history and color in another post but failed to mention stuff like the american communist party in the scottsboro trial era. possibly good intentions.......possibly just exploitation of the race issue and african americans to increase the power of the communist party. why did blacks become dissillusioned with that? why was it so easy for stalinist interference to crush any gains that may have been made? did it actually help african americans? these are all good questions regarding vanguard parties that to my knowledge haven't been sufficiently adressed apart from the obvious conclusions.
