I am concerned about how to reverse the process by which a fundamentalist right and a corporate elite were able to seize power in the United States.

So American culture is itself a hybrid and lends itself to use in other people's hybrids.

American movies and music deliver themes of freedom, innocence, and power that appeal to others - partly because America itself was put together out of a multiplicity of national traditions.

Right now, we have no possibility of politics because we have a one-party state.

Americas are, for a variety of reasons, the most adept at producing the kind of entertainment that delivers easy satisfactions.

To win power anywhere you have to convince people that you can do something for them.

It's an old anarchist dream that people can take care of their own lives.
