12. "I can't see how it's possible ..."
In response to In response to 9


  

          

to do ANYTHING "inclusive" without destroying capitalism. Capitalism is inherently divisive, and (as we've seent ime and time again) has pit brother against brother too many times.

>1) Would these inclusionary politics exist
>under the current capitalist system?

see above

>2) Do you believe that capitalism
>has anything to do with
>the mistreatment of "non-whites" in
>this country?

see above (capitalism also has a nasty way of linking itself up with a number of other exclusionary "isms" to create larger webs of oppression)

>3) Do you believe that a
>group of people (such as
>African-Americans) can recieve a fair
>shake within a capitalist society
>without controling some aspect of
>industry?

As implied from the above statements, I'm not so sure that there is any way that true justice can be had within the capitalist system. Now is "receiving a fare shake" the same thing as doing away with oppression ... no. I'm sure that certain African-Americans can "succeed" within the capitalist system, but at what cost are people willing to make this sacrifice?
