I was pleasantly amazed to see that this Blogspot title, Radical Musing, wasn’t already taken. As the name suggests, I hope to use this space to offer reflections and ideas from a left-wing, small-d democratic perspective that’s committed to collective liberation.
I take entrenched systems of power (including but not at all limited to racism, sexism, homophobia, ableism, and classism) very seriously, and I tend to roll my eyes at folks who tell me that any of these are less important than others, either in movement-building or in a vision of a better society. I think that social movements should be creative and inspire and attract people. I think that dogma and rigidity tend toward the seriously boring and uninspiring.
Plenty more to say, but let’s leave it there for now. Hope that you’ll read on!
