Finally getting around to reading Ignatiev's "How the Irish Became White". Considering how big it (and he) loomed in the circles I came up in, it's hard to believe it took this long. I wonder how much holds up after almost 30 years?!

Great piece by the recently deceased , (thanks to ):

"I find Douglass’s electoral efforts uninteresting, just as I find uninteresting today’s debates over whether socialists should take part in elections... He was flailing, and knew it.

"But a strong case can be made for Douglass when we shift our ground from his electoral to his non-electoral activities: what did he do when not electioneering?"
