Geopolitics

One thing I love about America is that it is a place where you can invent partially or entirely new identities. As a country consisting of waves of immigrants across different eras one has opportunity to be freed of the shackling constraints of the “Old World” where one is born in a certain role and tribe and expected to follow its norms, practices, and beliefs unquestiongly.

The reason I bring this up is related to the politics of diaspora groups. I think that diaspora politics is not just legitimate but warranted given the huge footprint of U.S. foreign and economy policy. But I do believe that diasporas should seek to be constructive in their political proposals and not simply replicate the conflicts of the Old World in a new country. 

America is a land of reinvention and reconciliation and it’s possible that people at odds with each other in one part of the world can become a model for coexistence in another — while also injecting fresh ideas to help ameliorate conflicts between tribes globally.
