There is a very strange irony, at least for me, reading all the recent material regarding the matter of antifa and the alt-right. This is because yesterday was the anniversary of the March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom in 1963. A. Phillip Randolph and Bayard Rustin as the principle organizers were far from perfect. Furthermore the popular media discourse about Martin Luther King, Jr. fails to point out on a regular basis that MLK had armed bodyguards surrounding him often. Yet when all is said and done the impact of the March and the impact of Antifa is profound and obvious. Violence and nonviolence are simply different tactics for different circumstances. The argument otherwise is absurd. King was able to understand that. Middle class white boys slumming it in sweatshirts and bandanas don't because they don't have to worry about the consequences. https://greensofri.nationbuilder.com/mlk-dream-speech -- Best regards, Andrew Stewart _________________________________________________________ Full posting guidelines at: http://www.marxmail.org/sub.htm Set your options at: http://lists.csbs.utah.edu/options/marxism/archive%40mail-archive.com
