Lately I've been thinking about whether I could in some way contribute to a better understanding of the American diaspora, its conditions, and its relationship to modern-day imperialism and colonialism, and increase the revolutionary sentiment or potential of this demographic. I feel like I'm nowhere near educated or experienced enough to make this type of contribution to theory right now, but I still identify this as kind of a gap in the current theory as I understand it.
Otherwise, I think I want to largely focus on accessibility and writing translations, as well as doing the more sort of typical rank-and-file organizational work. I think I would like to contribute to a sort of decentralization or spreading out of revolutionary activity in my country, since the current organizing in my experience is way too centered on the capital, and so ends up locking out a lot of people from the countryside or from other parts of the country.
