Re: True Unity Must Be Cultivated by The African R

In Response To: Re: True Unity Must Be Cultivated by The African R (Oshun Auset)

Is there anything inherently wrong with being successful in a capitalist system? Socio-economic reality dictates that capital/money is needed to eradicate poverty, which is one of the primary components of oppression and an obstacle on the path of liberation.

I personally dont think that "fighting against a capitalist" system is the answer, unless one narrows their approach and defines what aspect of the capitalist system that one is fighting.

Is it the IMF/World Bank/Nepad/the mining industry, etc...what aspect of the capitalist system are you suggesting that one fight against. If the fight isnt contextualized to include a clear definition of the 'fight' along with a cost/benefit analysis of the rational for the specific fight, then ones, in my opinion are just spouting rhetoric about fighting against the "capitalist system."
