Is this an endorsement of the candidate from you, Mr Fanti?

While it is interesting to read, and not as long, or scary as Project 2025, West doesn't have a hope of even getting his platform debated. The kind of politics that West advocates requires a mass movement, building from a base with the intention of getting local people elected to local bodies where they can establish a record in office and even more important, a voter base.

And given how divided the US is against itself, I wonder if West's pleas for unity suggest he is out of touch, even naive about the appeal of his platform-?

And is the West-Abdullah platform on 'Gender Justice' any different from the one Angela Davis has proposed in the past?

West-Abdulla-
"In the prophetic tradition that calls us to break the chains of oppression and in the spirit of radical love that recognizes the sacred worth of every individual, the West | Abdullah campaign proudly upholds the Women’s Justice Pillar. This cornerstone of our platform is a clarion call to dismantle the systemic injustices that obstruct women’s full participation in every facet of society. It is a commitment to champion gender equality and to empower all women and girls, confronting the myriad challenges they face with unwavering resolve and compassion."

Angela Davis
"Her commitment to radical feminism translates into an indefatigable emphasis on the inclusion of all women. At a conference in 2018 in the banlieues of Paris, I heard (https://x.com/rokhayadiallo/status/992532813781065729?s=46&t=20KBGaDzgTDb7AZKPt-76Q) her thoughtful reminder: “There can be no racial justice, there can be no peace, there can be no economic justice, unless we forthrightly insist on gender justice.” Not only does Davis place gender equality at the heart of all struggles, she consistently (https://www.youtube.com/live/4QTg6XVMHIM?feature=shared) and explicitly includes every woman who identifies as a woman."
In 2024, there is one 80-year-old leader we need more than ever: Angela Davis | Rokhaya Diallo | The Guardian (https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2024/jan/25/angela-davis-leader-activist-palestine)
