The essay focuses on bananas as a symbol of the fruits of imperialism enjoyed by workers in the imperial metropole. As global revolution happens, the predatory and inhumane supply chains that currently bring bananas to the core will be dismantled while new supply chains are established; there cannot be a simple 'transference' of these chains from the imperialists to the workers and so there will be a period without bananas in the imperial core.

One note I want to add is to emphasize the joy of international solidarity during this process. We should not mourn bananas. Instead, we should celebrate our sisters in the Global Periphery breaking the brutal chains that bind them to plantations, to artisan mines, to unventilated factories. The joy of liberation is infinitely greater than the joy of consumption.

As an injury to one is an injury to all, so is the liberation of one the liberation of all!
