I haven't the faintest notion what possible revolutionary role white hetero- sexual men could fulfill, since they are the very embodiment of reactionary- vested-interest-power. but then, i have great difficulty examining what men in general could possibly do about all this. in addition to doing the shitwork that women have been doing for generations, possibly not exist? no, i really don't mean that. yes, i really do.

More From Robin Morgan

We ain't gonna fight no reactionary pigs who run up and down the street being reactionary; we're gonna organize and dedicate ourselves to revolutionary political power and teach ourselves the specific needs of resisting the power structure, arm ourselves, and we're gonna fight reactionary pigs with international proletarian revolution. that's what it has to be. the people have to have the power: it belongs to the people.

I haven't the faintest idea what my royalties are. i haven't the faintest idea how many copies of books sold, or how many books that i've written. i could look these things up; i have no interest in them. i don't know how much money i have. there are a lot of things i just don't care about.

Each pursues his private interest and only his private interest; and thereby serves the private interests of all, the general interest, without willing it or knowing it. the real point is not that each individual's pursuit of his private interest promotes the totality of private interests, the general interest. one could just as well deduce from this abstract phrase that each individual reciprocally blocks the assertion of the others' interests, so that, instead of a general affirmation, this war of all against all produces a general negation.

"i mean, men give her power. they let her use their power. but it isn't hers, is it? it isn't because she's a woman that she's powerful, but despite it.

...black women write differently from white women. this is the most marked difference of all those combinations of black and white, male and female. it's not so much that women write differently from men, but that black women write differently from white women. black men don't write very differently from white men.
Writing Black And White Men
Find a way to say yes to things. say yes to invitations to a new country, say yes to meet new friends, say yes to learning a new language, picking up a new sport. yes is how you get your first job, and your next job, and your spouse, and even your kids. even if it's a bit edgy, a bit out of your comfort zone, saying yes means that you will do something new, meet someone new, and make a difference in your life. yes lets you stand out in a crowd, be the optimist, to stay positive, be the one everyone comes to. yes is what keeps us all young.

I have the deepest regret about 9/11. sept. 11, 2001, was one of the most difficult days i've ever had. i was in lima, peru, and had to fly back eight hours not knowing what happened in my own country, knowing thousands of my fellow citizens had died.

Number one, it is important that we fix the legal immigration system, because right now we've got a backlog that means years for people to apply legally. and what's worse is, we keep on increasing the fees, so that if you've got a hard working immigrant family, they've got to hire a lawyer; they've got to pay thousands of dollars in fees. they just can't afford it. and it's discriminatory against people who have good character, we should want in this country, but don't have the money. so we've got to fix that.
