To achieve their revolutionary change, Cloward and Piven sought to use a cadre of aggressive organizers assisted by friendly news media to force a re-distribution of the nations wealth. In their Nation article, Cloward and Piven were specific about the kind of crisis they were trying to create: By crisis, we mean a publicly visible disruption in some institutional sphere. Crisis can occur spontaneously (e.g., riots) or as the intended result of tactics of demonstration and protest which either generate institutional disruption or bring unrecognized disruption to public attention. No matter where the strategy is implemented, it shares the following features: 1. The offensive organizes previously unorganized groups eligible for government benefits but not currently receiving all they can. 2. The offensive seeks to identify new beneficiaries and/or create new benefits. 3. The overarching aim is always to impose new stresses on target systems, with the ultimate goal of forcing their collapse. ACORN, the new tip of the Cloward-Piven spear In 1970, one of George Wileys protégés, Wade Rathke like Bill Ayers, a member of the radical Students for a Democratic Society (SDS) was sent to found the Arkansas Community Organizations for Reform Now. While NWRO had made a good start, it alone couldnt accomplish the Cloward-Piven goals. Rathkes group broadened the offensive to include a wide array of low income rights. Shortly thereafter they changed Arkansas to Association of and ACORN went nationwide. Today ACORN is involved in a wide array of activities, including housing, voting rights, illegal immigration and other issues. According to ACORNs website: ACORN is the nations largest grassroots community organization of low-and moderate-income people with over 400,000 member families organized into more than 1,200 neighborhood chapters in 110 cities across the country, It is perhaps the largest radical group in the U.S. and has been cited for widespread criminal activity on many fronts. (Lets not get ahead of the whole story though.) By now, if you do not know that William Ayers and Bernadine Dohrn are domestic terrorists and founders of the Weather Underground that bombed American targets, you need to come out of the wilderness and pay attention to the current political situation. Barack (and possibly Michelle) have been involved with the Ayers for more than 20 years starting in 1985 with the Woods Fund, (courtesy of Steve Diamond). Also be aware that the Woods Fund has given grants to ACORN, Rashid Khalidi and Trinity United Church. - - - This is what you're voting for if you vote for Obama, or for a third party candidate, this year. - Bob _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/[EMAIL PROTECTED] ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
