I was having dinner with some left-wing activists in San Francisco yesterday. We chatted about several issues: Mahalla, Palestine, Islamism and Socialism, revolution, gentrification, community politics, internationalism, racism, when I heard this beautiful quote from Comrade Julio. “There isn’t anything the Americans have done in the Middle East that they didn’t do already in Mississippi,” he said. “The Americans applied their ‘foreign policy’ on their own people first, before they took it abroad.”
