again: the capitalists don't care what colour you are. they're just looking for an excuse to enslave you, at any opportunity that they can. race. language. religion. gender. they'd enslave you on the basis of your eye colour, or your opinion of abbey road, if they could get away with it.

a pretty good exploration of this is actually howard zinn's people's history of the united states. one of the central themes of the text is that the core narrative of the history of the united states is the elite's use of racism as a tool to divide the labouring classes against each other.

when you see the capitalist press deny the reality of historical white slavery, and use language that is designed to make black people angry, what you are witnessing is the elite using race to divide workers against each other.

and, you need to see this for what it is in order to truly conquer it. you need to call it out for what it is. and, you need to not just stop promoting it but actively debunk it.

we need the working class to unite, and we need to stop falling into these racialized narratives that are designed to divide us.

read the zinn text, and apply what you learn to what you see in the world around us.
