The Revolution NOW people I had in mind included Louis
P, Yoshie, Chuck O, and some others who, as I read
their ideas, seem to think that because we need really
radical social change to bedgin to solve our most
pressing problems, advocating anything else, no matter
what, is a sellout and betrayal and a dereliction of
left duty. Am I mischaracterizing the views of any
people I named her or others who have not signed with
ABB? This is a real question.
