I took it as basically a continual, helpful reminder that Amerika is an empire of racist shills. It reads as anachronistic to a modern reader. It's similar to if an author seasoned their writing heavily with "far out" and the like.

i thought it was

In the 1960s and early 1970s in the United States, leftists, particularly the Yippies, sometimes used Amerika rather than America in referring to the United States. It is still used as a political statement today. It is likely that this was originally an allusion to the German spelling of the word, and intended to be suggestive of Nazism, a hypothesis that the Oxford English Dictionary supports.

Thx.

Glad to know that etymology. I like that they use Amerika, I think it's good that it's jarring, not for any deep reason, just that Sakai didn't accept America as it was given to them... the concept of "America" is totally bogus, we are studying the history of a real country, Amerika.

So I READ SETTLERS. It's obviously very good and corrected a lot of mistaken ideas I held. But instead for everyone else who has also READ SETTLERS here are some criticisms/problems:

1. Sakai points out that the CPUSA was almost entirely black, at least in certain areas, when it was at its most effective (20s and 30s). The next time he mentions it, the CPUSA is entirely bankrupt as a Settler "leftist" organization which wilted along with the remnants of East/South European proletarianism. The only hint of an explanation he gives is that the proletarian members were pushed out generally for middle class New York liberals in the 40s in order to maintain "respectability" and the possibility of being bribed. This may be true but the story of those black people disappears except for ex-post-facto when they refused to support formerly communist Settler unions which tried to use them. What happened to all the black people? Why were they not able to leverage the USSR to force white radicals to follow the correct line (as the CP did in South Africa)? The same problem happens in Reconstruction. Of course blacks attempted to empower themselves while the Union was mostly interested in getting them to work again on their former plantations as wage laborers. Saying Reconstruction was an occupation is a bit too far imo but it is useful for making a point. But again, what happened to the black republicans? Sakai tells a great story of why the left has failed but the story seems to be that it was doomed from the beginning. Even if we take black nationalism, like Garveyism and the NOI to be the true revolutionary movement, then clearly the BPP and the LRBW are the height of this struggle since they combined socialism with nationalism. But they were suppressed by white settlers all the same, Sakai seems to be trapped in a prison. Maybe that's to be expected from a polemical work from the 80s which really shattered what everyone assumed to be true but he seems even more cynical in his latest interview for his interview in "When Race Burns Class: Settlers Revisited." It may simply be that socialist politics are impossible until America runs out of things to bribe its population with but it doesn't appear that the Bolshevik revolution or the Chinese revolution significantly affected the Settler left which makes this a grim prospect.

2. Marxism is based on a very simple axiom: classes act in their own self-interest. From this the basic facts of capitalism lead one to make the same logical conclusion as Marx: revolution happens in the most developed countries first. It seems to me that socialist revolutions happening in underdeveloped nations instead of advanced nations has led to three general responses: 1. The theory is wrong. This is most of Western Marxism, which adds various superstructural elements to Marx's abstract analysis, sometimes modifying it to the point that it becomes liberalism. Maybe classes don't act in their own self-interest? 2. Reality is wrong. The socialist revolutions were not socialist at all, just a form of capitalism or even warped feudalism. Marx's analysis is true, it just hasn't happened yet (or maybe it has but keeps getting betrayed). 3. We are wrong. Our analysis of the world based on Marx is incorrect. The people we thought were proletarians were not, our applications of Marxism to the real world were incorrect, what we thought was self-interest was not. Marx's analysis holds up but only if we rethink what we mean by proletariat, nation, capitalism, self-interest, etc.

Settlers is clearly the third response. It's interesting that this is the rarest response in the first world, liberals are incapable of admitting they were wrong by virtue of liberalism as a rational-individualist worldview. The question I would ask is are the first two responses useful at all? Sakai goes beyond simply criticizing communist intellectuals or minor sects. For Sakai, even the differences between Maoism, Marxism-Leninism, anti-revisionism, etc are meaningless in the Settler nation compared to naked self interest. This is an attractive proposition for keeping the scientific core of Marxism alive and one we all subscribe to more or less by calling Trots 'petty-bourgeois' or Sanders liberals 'labor aristocracy'. But Sakai is so extreme it's a really interesting thought, basically implying the Marxist-Leninist CPUSA was not revolutionary while the Garveyites of the time were. Is there even room for communist politics left here or is communism simply an objective fact about how the world works?

Assuming people start to get through the book and READ SETTLERS I think this thread can turn into somewhere people post their thoughts.

He does describe what happened to the black workers that once made up the CPUSA in he South. The New Deal and the Depression was used to drive black proletarians out of the work force.

He mentions 40% of black skilled laborers being driven out in a number of years

i'm not sure marxism can be reduced to self-interest like that anyway, because it blurs with liberal economic ideas of self-interest which aren't marx's. marx is saying that the proletariat's position in production makes it the first ascending class that has the capacity to build a sustainable, prosperous socialism and not just like an isolated egalitarian peasantry. forming together the proletariat into a class that recognizes itself as such is an entire historical epoch which takes political work. without a lot of intellectual and organizing work, factory workers will spontaneously call for improvements within their own lives and may spontaneously lash out against specific injustices but find it difficult to articulate a class-wide alternative to capitalism. in the absence of that political work (typically done by parties) then all sorts of irrational alternatives can lay claim to sections of the working class and then their self-interest will be interpreted in those terms, often nationalist or religious feelings.

anyway the main reason i've deferred reading settlers for a while is that whenever people talk about it i've heard them talk in anecdotal terms, like racist statements by unions or whatever, which i guess because racism is a discourse it has to be like that to some degree. but if you "go looking for it" then you can apply that in a lot of situations and it doesn't always seem helpful. like imagine trying to compare like to like in japan or even china. both countries are always accused, rightly or wrongly, of extreme nationalist chauvinism and hatred of foreigners, and if you dig around for such statements they would be easy to find. china also has clear unevenness where people accuse them of being a colonial power, whether in places like xinjiang or africa. but those facts seem like sideshows from the fact that the vast majority of chinese have an interest in socialism.

it does have some series of anecdotes and it rushes through history a bit at some points but so far it pulls a lot of major trends together, the section on jacksonian democracy in general was very comprehensive and persuasive for example, in terms of establishing the trend of settlers voting on a mass basis for genocide as a matter of self interest, and later it makes a pretty clear case for how the earliest unions banded together to take over (book uses the phrase "annex"...) entire industries built up and staffed by chinese workers in the west. i mean i cited the gompers anecdote, which i think is a powerful anecdote in and of itself, but the chapter was a fully fleshed out argument dealing with the early labor movement more generally

How Sakai deals with the 'self-interest' of various classes is something I remember taking issue with in the book as well. I should probably re-read Settler since it's been a while. I think it's an important book to read, for a lot of reasons, but needs to mostly be appreciated for the its polemical force within the context it was written.

Sakai continually re-affirms that all manifestations of white supremacy and racism are explicitly done for the material benefit of the white 'working class'. And not just in the broader superstructural sense where racialized class boundaries proffer relative advantages to white skin, but in a specific and material way, where every single instance of discrimination is based on a narrow material advantage. This even extends to situations where the efficacy of real national unity to all parties (at least on a narrow tactical level), such as trade union struggles, is clear.

So while Sakai is right to remind us of the material base of white supremacy and the amerikan crakkker nation, I think his analysis as a whole is done a disservice by denying any ideological function of white supremacy as a function of amerikan politics.

A good counter is Walter Rodney, who in his discussion of European settlers of Afrika, always pointed out the superstructural components of white supremacy, and how its application could lead to irrationalites, from a strictly 'material interest' perspective, on the part of the ruling class.

r u objecting to my shit clarity due to being high as fuck or are you just disagreeing that the ideological manifestations of white supremacy have material consequences?

either way, like I said, it's been a few years so I should probably re-read it if I want to make a real critique. I may be misremembering or just wrong, but I do recall thinking sakai focuses too much on a narrow economism, esp. versus rodney who points out that:

"It can further be argued that by the 19th century white racism had become so institutionalised in the capitalist world (and notably in the U.S.A.) that it sometimes ranked above the maximisation of profit as a motive for oppressing black people."

but again, I should probably just re-read(.org) it first

but i'm also not sure that you can actually detach self-interest from racist ideology anyway, because i don't know how you can establish the inferiority of a large racial class with whom you live in close proximity without developing a material interest in taking their power and property. like you can't advocate the genocide of natives without becoming aware of your interest in their land and thus a material interest in their genocide. i don't think the idea of irrational hatred actually has independent explanatory power without reference to material conditions.

Imo cohesion of the oppressor oppressed relationship is more important than exploiting to the greatest degree possible. It has nothing to do with the "ideological manifestations of white supremacy" (whatever that is), but the simple need to prevent the constant threat of insurrection by the oppressed.

For example, James A. Henretta, in his well-known essay, "Economic Development and Social Structure in Colonial Boston", concludes that the Colonial era was one of rapidly growing settler class inequality, with the "appearance of ... 'proletarians'."
This is an often-quoted conclusion. Yet, a careful examination of his research shows that: 1. In rural Massachusetts of the 1770's land ownership was near-universal among the settlers (over 90%); 2. Even in Boston, a major urban center, the clear majority of settler men were self-employed property-owners (60-70%); 3. Henretta himself points out that many settler men who were without taxable property were not poor, but had comfortable incomes and were respected enough to be elected to public office. So, although Henretta chose to stress the appearance of inequality among settlers, his own research confirms the general picture of shared privilege and an exceptional way of life for the Euro-Amerikan conquerers.
