Well Of Course I Get Depressed Sometimes,

I'm Suggesting That We Abolish The Social Function Of Prisons.

Well, We See An Increasingly Weaker Labor Movement As A Result Of The Overall Assault On The Labor Movement And As A Result Of The Globalization Of Capital.

What I Think Is Different Today Is The Lack Of Political Connection Between The Black Middle Class And The Increasing Numbers Of Black People Who Are More Impoverished Than Ever Before.

In A Sense The Quest For The Emancipation Of Black People In The U.s. Has Always Been A Quest For Economic Liberation Which Means To A Certain Extent That The Rise Of Black Middle Class Would Be Inevitable.

We Have To Look At For Example The Increasing Globalization Of Capital, The Whole System Of Transitional Capitalism Now Which Has Had An Impact On Black Populations - That Has For Example Eradicated Large Numbers Of Jobs That Black People Traditionally Have Been Able To Count Upon And Created Communities Where The Tax Base Is Lost Now As A Result Of Corporations Moving To The Third World In Order To Discover Cheap Labor.
