[Marxism] Lamantia/Fittko obits

["acpollack2@xxxxxxxx" <acpollack2@xxxxxxxx>]

See the Times today.
Fittko is described as a CPer who helped Walter Benjamin, Hannah Arendt, and 
many others over the border in the Pyrenees, among other resistance activities.
Lamantia, surrealist poet, is also described as "promoting socialist revolution 
in junior high" (and being expelled for "intellectual delinquency"!), and as 
having become "part of the revolutionary left" at Berkeley (I'm leaving out a 
description of his main claim to fame, his poetry and encouragement of other 
Surrealists/Beats).
Not surprisingly when I did a Google search I come across, from our well--read 
moderator, the following:

But tell us more!
