People are here when you say i wonder if i am irredeemable to hear all white people and white people as individuals as opposed to whiteness as an identity. So when i go to the second paragraph, what if we took this identity apart that people would not have the different history but a different relationship to identity. And potentially have as a consequence a more humane relationship to each other. So later into the first paragraph an individual someone that was raised by a white man or someone take for example john brown or bob zellner. Who i think are the most precious people in the world but its important to me not to have a formulation that removes them from my sense of the struggle that i am engaged in.

As a letter to her son. Here is a portion of that program. People here when you say i wonder if i can be irredeemable they hear all white people and they hear them as individuals as opposed to whiteness for the identity. And with the second paragraph so they dont have a different history or a body but a different relationship to identity. So potentially as a consequence a more humane relationship to each other. So what i got to saying a person or individual so certainly like a white man or someone who thinks of those figures i take for example john brown are some of the most precious people in the world. Its important to me not to have a formulation and this is a struggle i am engaged in.

I may not quite agree with the scale she wants to do them on but we agree that we should help poor people and pregnant women and so forth, that there should be not a fist in peoples face but an open hand of help and that is perfectly consistent with what we unfortunately called capitalism. The ordinary capitalists transaction, we buy a cup of coffee and for one thing for sure act of buying a cup of coffee is mutually advantageous in both people are happy about it but furthermore youll notice in your own life that if you make a habit of going to that coffee shop you eventually become friends.

So that when i go into the second paragraph where im like what if we took this identity apart, those people would not sort of, have a different history or body. But it would be a different relationship to identity. I think as a consequence, we have a more humane relationship to each other. When i got leader into the first paragraph when im saying an individual can be a heaven. Certainly, both someone who was raised by a white man or as someone who thinks of so many figures like, take for example, john brown. Who i think are some of the most precious people in the world.
