anyone is worth recruiting, really. you just shouldn't have to compromise your own views to meet them half-way.
like i remember certain ppl in ye olde LF encouraging de-emphasizing LGBT rights and abortion in order to "win over" NASCAR dads or whatever. i guess it is similar to certain lefties (such as myself at times, admittedly) glossing over Sanders' pro-imperialist stances.
fape posted:The Berniecrat movement has been a real seat-of-the-pants affair - thrown together almost at the last minute, full of missteps and fumbles, etc. And they've already accomplished more in a single year than decades of far-left parties bickering among themselves about who is the True Marxist. Somehow after over a century and a half the majority of these people have still not figured out that Marx's approach - assess what's wrong with capitalism, then encourage a populist uprising - was not a want ad for thinkpieces. It was a call to action, for each of us to go out into our communities and start organizing. It took me a long time to figure this out, so I'm not trying to look down my nose at anyone when I say this. But it would be nice if people would stop clinging to a failed strategy. Because ultimately the failure of the left to actually organize is a not insignificant part of the reason why this country is sliding into the abyss, since we weren't around to put up a united front against the kind of people who spend all day trying to figure out an excuse for why sweatshops, ecological collapse, and mass death are actually A Good Thing.

If more of this needs to be done I'll pick another chapter...
Duke Library has a scan of All Africa is Standing Up. I suppose one way to get it would be to ask via north carolina craigslist. How does a normal get jstor access again?>
swampman posted:you bought those books to corroborate Settlers?

that and they seemed like they'd be worth reading. i bought them all used for less than $30 bucks - they might also be referenced in the other chapters but I didn't check, so they might come in handy on other chapter footnotes.
also, there's a dude that has a pretty wicked collection of archival leftist material here: http://radicalarchive.tumblr.com/post/67960754400/all-africa-is-standing-up-african-liberation but I didn't follow up to see if he had the volume of "All Africa Is Standing Up" that I was looking for.

imo just start emailing grad students at http://literature.duke.edu & tell them what you want and why, it's the comstock lode of bourgeois marxians & there's bound to be someone cool in there somewhere

Um, you know that non-white people are perfectly capable of writing legibly and intelligibly, right? No I didn't have to decipher any bizarre grammar or crude pictograms..
