PARTrSAN REVIEW
tentionally reminded us that victimization cannot be intellectual currency.
Victimization is what politics is supposed to change. Politics - not
myth,
not fairy tales, not Halloween costumes worn to titillate a public unable
to distinguish between real and fantasized oppression. Politics -
that
mundane art of the possible, that bent but unbroken weapon of change.
