@ntnsndr.in @sauyaq.bsky.social What happens "in real life" which supports any of us to "have hope"? What happens which does not support people to "keep going", too, eh? What's "worth anticipating", is "worth the doing, even if & when outcomes are uncertain"? Indeed, "commitment", & "practice", eh?

Even by Finkelstein's standards this is historically illiterate. It was MLK, not Malcolm X, who said: "The evils of racism, economic expoiraton and militarism are all tied together..you can't get rid of one without getting rid of the others." www.thetimes.com/comment/colu...

Malcolm X’s politics are still driving us apart

A hundred years from his birth, the activist’s views on race, identity, capitalism and slavery retain a divisive currency
