I'd also be curious for more information. What little I know of him is
that he had a significant role in the New Left, and founded the RCP,
which is currently the only (and I use the term incredibly loosely)
"major" Maoist party in the US. They seem to have bought into Mao's
endorsement of the Stalinist cult of personality and decided to make one
of their unexciting founder. Therefore, their constant praising of him
is as much a (moronic) political tactic as genuine sentiment.

Do I have that right?
