[PEN-L:8698] Re: Re: Re: Re: (Fwd) Review of *Hegel and MarxAfter theFall of Communism*



However, it is not just any old "Other" or an abstract "Other". It is the Black African as Other, the Indian as Other.  The posties need to focus more on Black and African and Indian as "Other".

David Harvey also said that, far from this being an odd little
sideline of Kant's, he actually spent a tremendous amount of time on
his racist speculations. So I guess all these things the posties say
about Reason being founded on an excluded, demeaned unReasonable
Other is historically accurate.
