Totally agree that this is how deep, necessary changes happen on the cultural level. I think the political task of our generation is to integrate these issues into the wider economic ones, because they are by no means mutually exclusive (whatever mass media would have us believe). I'm always a little baffled when the struggle for economic equality gets pitted against anti-racist or feminist movements. It is quite clear from history that racism has been employed as a tool to keep the affluent classes in power. Slavery is the most extreme example of the rich extracting wealth from their workers, but in modern times and it is also a useful wedge split the working class. Similarly, it seems relatively easy to recognize that unequal pay and mistreatment of women suppresses the labor cost of half of the workforce. There are obviously complex dynamics at play on both fronts, but power and wealth are being inextricable, it seems necessary to build a political movement that addresses exploitation across a range of inequalities, including economic, racial, gender, sexuality, etc.
