Vol. 6 No. 2 ‘Til All the Flowers Bloom
The murder of 6 Asian women in Atlanta is a symptom of a much larger problem — the deep interconnection between racism and war, or more specifically, imperialist aggression on the part of the U.S. ruling class. Like racism, sexism and misogyny is deeply embedded in the machinery of capitalist war. U.S. domestic and imperialist policies toward Asians utilize racism and sexism as a tool putting women at the heart of U.S. aggression both as targets and as actors in resistance. In “Til all the Flowers Bloom” we seek to develop a framework we can use in struggles against patriarchal and racist oppression. This issue seeks to deepen our understanding of how U.S. imperialist expansion fuels racism and misogyny and what it means to struggle for solidarity.
