Markin comment:
All that Twitter's is not gold. Although technology can be helpful to those of us who struggle against the imperial monster remember they (the government, the corporations, etc.) and their agents control the flow of access. The role of the social network apparatus, as noted in the linked article, should give radicals and revolutionaries pause. If, as I have jokingly, posited in the past in this space the revolution will not be televised then, when the deal goes down, neither will it be done through the Internet, helpful as it is.
This space is dedicated to the proposition that we need to know the history of the struggles on the left and of earlier progressive movements here and world-wide. If we can learn from the mistakes made in the past (as well as what went right) we can move forward in the future to create a more just and equitable society. We will be reviewing books, CDs, and movies we believe everyone needs to read, hear and look at as well as making commentary from time to time. Greg Green, site manager
