We're in the midst of the fever dream.
The country...
is engaged in an all-out assault on Black life, an all-out assault on the idea that we're a multiracial democracy.
What does it mean to forget in this moment?
It seems to me that forgetfulness makes us accomplices in the ongoing horror of those who believe that the country must be white or the country shouldn't be at all.
Well, I would want it to be more substantive.
I think Obama was doing that.
And then, of course, you juxtapose that with his drone policy.
You juxtapose that to the way in which I still got the Canadian prime minister in my head as he's describing the world in which America is the hegemon and how the rules were bent to benefit us and the world had to look elsewhere.
So I'm committed to a world in which everybody
No matter their birthplace, no matter their color, no matter who they love or their gender or their class position, have the ability to actualize their dreams.
And I don't mind symbolic gestures to that.
I want substantive policy with regards to that.
So what I'm calling for is something much more fundamental, if that makes sense.
You know, the end of the book, the arc of the book is right here.
Usually when you write a book like this, people want you to say, so what do we do?
Give me a damn blueprint, Eddie, since you're the egghead in here.
And I said, well, you know, I've written two other books that, you know, because this is the third in the trilogy that have tried to address the moment.
And I said, you know, I don't want to offer policies because that's what we do in order to make ourselves feel good.
to make ourselves think that we're actually trying.
