It can't just be a promise of return to normalcy. It can't just be we're going to survive. It has to also offer something for people to not just survive but thrive.

And it also has to strengthen itself against future fascistic threats.”

Fighting Fascism- Lessons from the Colonies, with Robin D.G. Kelley

"Aimé Césaire cut through the mythologies to show that fascism in Europe was no anomaly, it was the boomerang effect of brutal European colonialism abroad coming home.

Following recent events here in the UK, especially those of last weekend in London, this week I've written about the need for liberal-minded Brits to reclaim our national flags.
