James, it was an excellent essay about Theil, et al. Thanks. I don't know how to fight it but things built, can be torn down. The whole plan is despicable and we have been stupid and too unaware. Like most despicable human endeavors, however, I hope it collapses under the weight of arrogance, infighting, greed, lust for power, and the "serving classes" resistance. They are wealthy and clever but soulless and empty. I just hope they trip over their own feet eventually. Their kind of conquering madness always ends. They underestimate their opponents. I hope to see it, but it'll happen. Thanks James!

This is another reason why I was disappointed when many Black people said that "they are sitting this one out." I am not saying that we should be in the streets and putting our lives on the line, but acting as though deportation can't happen to African Americans is a false narrative. This government will do everything it can to make their "white dream" come true. We should be working with the Latino community and other brown communities to prevent some of the things that are happening. Of course, that means working with those who want to work with you and open to change. As a British/Latino/Caribbean I am quite aware that I am seen the same as any Black person or person of colour, there is no safety within my personal nationalism or culture; we have to fight together, or we will be doomed to die together.
