Someone somewhere cited The Revolution Will Not Be Televised in a quick graphic.

MY REPLY
I told someone else somewhere, the issue is guidance. All movements need a destination. Absent a destination, a movement is bound to fail, meaning it will not move the world around the movement to somewhere.

yeah gil scott heron:) .. I said somewhere else, the usa will be 250 years old next year, that is a quarter of a thousand years. not a little bit of time. I don't see the revolution today, I think more of the time the roman empire changed location from roma to nova roma/constantinople. A time of change or upheavel, but alot of it wasn't the people of the roman empire which stretched from modern spain to syria uprising as much as after some chaos, the government remade itself to fit the people who lived under it. I think the usa is in that situation. The United States of America was founded by first people/native American slaughtering black African enslaving financially wealthy white European outcast. Said outcast developed a legal system that allowed for governmental flexibility more than any other at the time. But, the flexibility wasn't and isn't  impervious to being used to maintain rigid orders/systems/structures. The white power order [white is top, white is best, white is right, white is normal and not white are the opposites], the systems of inequality applied across all forms of race [phenotypical/gender/age/religion/ancestry/fiscal quality and all other] , the structures of slavery from the prisons to the hospitals to the schools that allow the control of various people legally, to their detriment, are not as they were, have the same level of potency or presence, when the USA was founded. No, Richard has never been shackled or called boy by whites. But while said orders/systems/structures exist they are weaker than ever before in the usa or the European colonies that preceded it, and must embrace coexistence with new orders/systems/structures. Within the USA regional varieties of the orders/systems/structures will need to be embraced by all under one roof. Orders not based on whiteness but on wealth, allowing all who are financially wealthy the same privileges as white males when wealthy. Systems of inequality will remain but applied across fewer forms of race. phenotype, gender? no. religion somewhat, age,fiscal quality? yes. Structures of slavery will have to be replaced with structures of poverty. Yes keeping people poor. The USA is not becoming Star Trek, but the fabric of its populace is more varied than ever before in the past, more financially potent across all racial lines than ever before , more legally present /represented/demanding than ever before across all racial lines. So the federal government has to use its flexibility to reflect that. Will it? I don't know. Will I gamble it will? I gamble the USA will break as the people in it will not use the flexibility within the legal code to change the government to suit them. 
The people outside the usa in many countries biggest issue is the strategic view of immigration, the age of the usa from the end of world war two to today has made immigration a better choice than scuffling to make ones country better. It is easier for a small family to move than to be part of a movement. The uprising outside the usa will require a change of minds. Cause, at the moment, it will never be easier to change Mexico/Nigeria/India than immigrate away from said places to a country like the USA, unless the USA closes up shop. Scrumpt is trying to get that to happen to support the old oders/systems/structures trying to hold on to dominance in the usa. I don't see long term that happening. Though, a big part of that is how the states are managed. For historical precedence, the articles of confederation did precede the constitution and its entire design was based on the idea that the states only undeniable unifying factor was self defense, which is still true today.  But such a change will require a change in the quality of elected officials in the usa at the which I do not see at any level.
