Revolutionary nationalism calls for an end to domination of man by man, and it doesn’t matter if this domination is by white or the Black.

What they fear is that the revolutionary nationalist will engage in the same savagery that has marked the European’s “national conquest”. They fear a reverse “Manifest Destiny” or the brown-black version of the “White Man’s Burden”.

Post this link the next time a settler starts getting buck around the concepts of self-determination. The only place I feel this article falls short is that it makes very little mention of our Indigenous comrades, who in many respects, have been dealt a much harsher hand in comparison to what we've gone through. Things that comrades here have given me pause on; with regard to concepts like the Black Belt Republic being a practical nonstarter given that's not even the settler's land, that was always someone else's.

While I see actual Panafricanism as a viable road for Black comrades, in Amerika at least, we can't forget that we're not the only ones wronged here; and any liberation we reach means nothing if it's not together with the other colonized subjects-of-empire on this landmass, is where I want to get off this soapbox.
