Solidarity is not a myth. It is the “artificial lines of division, ” as W.E.B. Du Bois put it, which is the myth, which this article encourages. Those lines of division go in every direction. While this article points to instances of anti-blackness among “non-black POC” there are many instances going the other way. For example, in California, many in the African-American community supported the anti-immigrant initiative, Prop. 187, while many in the Latino community supported the anti-affirmative-action initiative, Prop. 209. The result of these “artificial lines of division” was that both were passed, and everyone suffered. Instead of looking for blame, let us look for solutions. If we want to fight racism, we need to promote solidarity, not division. That “Solidarity,” as Ricardo Flores Magon put it, “is the consciousness of the common interest, and the actions that follow from that consciousness.”
