People In Hell Want Ice Water.
"I was just listening to Todd Gitlin who was a guest on WNYC radio as part of their May 1st coverage. Among other things, he said that he thought there was work for Occupy to do to establish, 'a sustained place in American political life.'
It is hard to think of a worse thing for Occupy to find for itself than a 'sustained place in American political life'!
Political resistance should NOT seek to become part of the 'political ecology' of America – it should contribute to a world WITHOUT America and without everything that America stands for and does in the world.
We do not need, and we should not be seeking, to get a 'place at the table' of empire. We need a world without empires.
One of the greatest things about Occupy is that it WASN'T part of the ongoing political terrain of the US. It ruptured out of those ruts. That is why it inspired so many and that is why it opened up such space for people to begin to think and dream differently. And that is why, at least as much as anything else, it was so viciously and brutally repressed and attacked by police who were commanded from the highest levels the state (including nation-wide conference calls among mayors who then did coordinated brutal police attacks in different cities).
Those who rule this country and this system are deathly afraid of the big questions that just began to be posed by the Occupy movement and among those who started to think more deeply about where all the problems confronting humanity come from. But, those of us who dream of a different world – we must welcome and embrace those big questions, we must look and think ever more deeply about the root of the problem and the necessary solution." - Sunsara Taylor.
