Am I missing something? He does say things out loud that many of us know (and barely talk about) and others ignore. He's got a talent for explaining hard concepts to teens willing to listen.
Yes the change may need to be induced from the top and we get to chose who's at the top and push things forward through exercising democracy. Read his books, listen to his talks then go and act.

Why teens specifically? I'd say
And in that capacity he also introduces me to new concepts every now and then.
Anyhow, here he is recently on the QAA podcast: https://feddit.org/post/19563603

It's only one pixel in a sea of data, but I tuned in to him via BoingBoing when I was like, 12.

His books are the same kind of repetition. It's sad, really. I've had high hopes that Doctrow would evolve into a world-changing voice. He has the ability to do so.

he's like a lot of specialized people
his ideas would be really useful if we weren't trapped in a global spiral of capitalist fascism
