What would be really helpful is for folks who oppose identity politics as it relates to OWS to specifically address Ford's arguments here.

I don't see what's so repulsive or problematic about his analysis or the things he's asking for. Doug has explained that he finds it troubling that a movement like OWS do things such as Ford describes, such as demonstrate to "black people" ..."that white-dominated movements offer the hope of specific impacts on the African American condition."
