Islam is at the heart of an emerging global anti-hegemonic culture that combines diasporic and local cultural elements, and blends Arab, Islamic, black and Hispanic factors to generate "a revolutionary black, Asian and Hispanic globalization, with its own dynamic counter-modernity constructed in order to fight global imperialism.

actions speak louder than words: rev. jeremiah wright, a true patriot
Counterpunch: Rev. Jeremiah Wright, a True Patriot by Lawrence Korb and Ian Moss thoroughly addresses the claim that Jeremiah Wright hates America or is somehow less patriotic than his critics.
All that labeling of Rev. Wright as un-patriotic and whatnot only reveals the discourse of patriotism for what it is: one more monopolizing tool in the hands of the rich and the powerful, of the guys who shamelessly dodged military service and still call themselves American.
