I can recommend a never quite silenced black voice as an expert on "
structural racism ". An old paper back book I am presently reading is
titled " Malcolm X Speaks " , edited by George Breitman ( 1966) . One
of Malcolm X's speeches is titled " The Harlem' Hate Gang 'Scare ". It
is very relevant in explaining -not advocating- so called " terrorist
type tactics " today connected with the chaos in the Middle
East. But clearly Malcolm X connected structural racism with capitalism
: " It's impossible for a white person to believe in capitalism and
not believe in racism "( page 69 ).
Think about what Malcolm X says here and then see the wisdom of the Bernie Sanders campaign - even with a few beers in you subverting your capitalist conditioned " common sense ". A socialist for president ?
