I've said it before, and I'll say it again.
A higher seat at the table of an unjust system, diversity among the ruling class, is not progress, it is a bribe!
Assimilating, adopting colonial definitions of success based on a permanent underclass, becoming a colonizer ourselves, is not freedom.
To succeed under an oppressive regime does not logically mean the system of oppression promoted and defended by law, custom, and commercial interests, magically no longer exists.
