This is an old video, but it shows how Identity Politics manifests itself as the newest form of racism.
Obama says that unless I am a 'Native American', I came from someplace else.
But no, *I* did not come from somewhere else. Obama is taking a racial perspective, asserting that *I* as identified by my race came from somewhere else. This is RACISM in its purest form as soon as you proceed from the lie that *I* came here from somewhere else due to my race, and then proceed to saying why this means *I* have to do this or that, or I lose equal standing because 'my people' did this or that.
And this is critical to the success of Identity Politics, to divide the working class against itself and thus distract us all from how WE TODAY AS A CLASS are being robbed and ripped off by the current politicians so they can repay Wall Street banksters and international corporations for their donations to the politicians election campaign.
Maybe if we werent fighting for the scraps from the Rich Mans table we wouldnt be listening to all the racist bullshit going on today.
