Kinda felt bad for him here:

Us white students all talked informally—in dorms, hallways, conference rooms. Trying to figure out how to feel.

But he was getting a clue here:

There are so many people on the US left who still act like race and gender are secondary to class. And those people keep getting pissier.

Yes, that one is really old!

If your plan for building a left victory in the US isn't grounded in the fight against race and gender oppression you're an idiot. Period.


That's gonna leave a mark!

Wonder when the light's gonna come on for some of the folks...



Meanwhile, they can talk to the hand, as we used to say.
