I give about as much of a concern about your being currently in a cellar as you care about my condition. I will fight along side of you against the system that has you in a cellar; when you fight against a system that would have me in a cellar BECAUSE OF MY RACE.

For me to help you address your status quo concern (that has you in the cellar), still leaves me wanting. And history gives me plenty of reason to believe that once I help you accomplish your ends, you will jettison me ... as the status quo, with respect to race relationships, hasn't changed ... I just have a different white guy to deal with.

Your resistance in these discussions, suggests that you are an exemplar of this quote: "Revolutionaries are rarely as dissatisfied with the system as they are with their position within the system."

Is that what you got from that? bravenak Apr 2014 #19
