Steve,

Hmmm...  Not every resistance is becoming-minor, you'll agree. Although I 
understand the sentiment, I can't really see unions in that context. Let me 
think...  Maybe Cornel West's introduction of the non-academic 
speech/writing of the history of Black religious preaching into academic 
discourse through his books is an affirmative (let's avoid 'successful') 
instance of becoming-minor?  Maybe refusing to learn English for a 
non-anglophone (and instead learning Czech or Urdu) is becoming-minor? 
Divorcing your car? Giving time? Being queer? Or maybe Jan Palach? Or maybe 
-- body artists?

Just checkin'
