  1. @da_667 C. Wright Mills is worth everyone's time. Lucid prose, dense with insights. He named these social pathologies in the 1950s. "Crackpot realism." "Institutional irresponsibility."

    The following is a 1961 letter and postscript by #Socialist Workers Party (SWP) leaders George Novack and Evelyn Reed to James P. Cannon, who was then SWP national chairman.

    Describing a visit by Novack and Reed with sociologist #CWrightMills — author of Listen Yankee: The Revolution in Cuba, the letter centers on an exchange of views on the Cuban revolution, which had triumphed two years earlier, as well as broader issues, including #Marxism and #Stalinism.

    The revolutionary victory in #Cuba had a transformational impact, inspiring greater collaboration among fighters for social change who came from different backgrounds and experiences all over the world.
