On Al Jazeera, I was recently asked if the reason that dissident movements like the Civil Rights movement and abolitionist groups have existed and succeeded in the U.S. was because of the institutions developed by the founding fathers. The answer is no — movements, not our slaveholding oligarchic founding fathers, have been the primary driving force of the progressive change enacted in America since its founding. While the institutions developed under our bourgeois democracy have provided a level of lateral space for dissent to be pushed through, it is the grassroots campaigns that have worked against the system that have reformed it for the better — not the elites who created and rule it.
