Obviously, we talk about when the importance of not I, but we, I am we, and those I things, have we lost that? Because I think when you, the way the Panthers thought about it is like, if we liberate each other and we help each other, then the masses can, you know, strive or thrive, right? But I'm curious, have you think we've lost that I am we, that mentality?

This is such a big question.

The theory of intercommunalism was one of Newton's greatest conceptual innovations.

13 years before the word globalization had been coined by a later Harvard economist, Theodore Levin, Newton had already conceptualized the world as directed by the interest of a few capitalist elite who essentially have rendered nation-state sovereignty, the choices led by the heads of nation-states, as relatively obsolete.

Because in the final analysis, decisions are being made in the interest of capital.

said that these nation-state borders had been rendered in a sense obsolete by a military empire on the part of the U.S. so that they only use the borders when they want to, but when they want to cross a border and invade a state and turn it into a colony, they do that with impunity.

The concept of the border seems like it's a heavy concept, but in fact, it's just a tool leveraged by elites.

You have Eldridge Cleaver's division that's going more extreme in their attacks against police and just the establishment, where Huey P. Newton, as you said, had this, and Fred Hampton, they kind of had a lot of similarities in that sense, too, where there's more of this... collective human? How can we build the community up in a way that gets their accomplished goals across? So can you talk a little bit about that and the FBI's focus on the Black Panthers specifically? So
