“#RulesforRadicals” was written at a time of epic social upheaval in the #UnitedStates, and it was read avidly by #VietnamWar #protesters, #feminists, #civilrights #activists and warriors on #poverty. More than half a century later, a new mini-genre of “how-to” #books about #dissent and #activism has emerged, drawing lessons from past #protests for the era of “#NoKings” rallies, #BlackLivesMatter marches and the campus pro-#Palestinian #encampments.
Coincidentally but intriguingly, three of these books were #written by #Jewish #authors who, explicitly or not, are offering advice on resistance drawing on Jewish wisdom, role models and historical precedents.
The three books — “How to Be a Dissident” by #GalBeckerman; the forthcoming “On Courage” by #JuliaAngwin and #AmiFieldsMeyer; and “Be a Refusenik!” by #IzabellaTabarovsky — arrive at a moment of #protest fatigue and #political #polarization.

Just a reminder… if you need a #RuleBook for the next four years (and maybe longer), this book is a good place to start. #Books #Bookstodon #Resources #RulesForRadicals

Presentation on activism and #SaulAlinsky at the #SanDiego Progressive Democratic Club by @colinparent #RulesForRadicals
1. Identity a problem
2. Propose a solution to that problem (optional)
3. Remind the public who is responsible to fix that problem (creatively and repeatedly)
4. Thank them if they do something to solve the problem, even if they didn't do it in the exact way you proposed (this can be hard) -

Jeff "never puts away anything, especially oven mitts" Cliff, Bringer of Nightmares 🦝🐙 🇱🇧🧯 🇨🇦 @[email protected] ·listening to #TIJ chapter 2
1) ford associates a 'microbe' with the jewish-nature but honestly ...this is pre-the selfish gene, pre-discovery of DNA so what he's *really* grasping at describing is a *meme*. It's not a jewish microbe (though, who knows), but jewish *memes* that are viewed as the threat
2) "The Jewish Question exists wherever jews appear, says theodore hertzel [the father of zionism], because they bring it with them -
It is not their numbers that create the question, for there is in almost every country a larger number of other aliens than of jews - it is not their much boasted ability, for it is now coming to be understood that give the jew an equal start and hold them to the rules of the game and it is not smarter than anyone else, indeed, in one great class of jews, the zeal is quenched when the opportunity for intrigue is removed...so remember all these people who say 'oh the jews won without firing a shot, they did it all legally...henry ford is saying, no they win by cheating. They can't win within the rules, at least not more than other races can win - they need to go outside the rules, so keep that in mind"
and it reminds me of (and anyone who would seriously consider reading TIJ, the following link is a must-read: )

an excerpt of which i would put in the same category as #rulesforradicals -
Jeff "never puts away anything, especially oven mitts" Cliff, Bringer of Nightmares 🦝🐙 🇱🇧🧯 🇨🇦 @[email protected] ·so far #theprotocolsoftheeldersofzion (surely there should be a shorter hashtag for this) mostly just reads like an older, slightly more cutthroat version of Machiavelli's The Prince
as does #RulesforRadicals - and both from the perspective of the HaveNots -
Jeff "never puts away anything, especially oven mitts" Cliff, Bringer of Nightmares 🦝🐙 🇱🇧🧯 🇨🇦 @[email protected] ·Here we go with this again
"She was accepted immediately as one fo the fifty-six volunteers who would take six weeks of sensitivity training at a resort called Crystal Cliffs near ANtigonish, NS. "The Company is yours" an executive staff member told them at the opening session, "you will run it." That was a strange welcome for a group of young people who were, by and large, cynical about any kind of structure. It was an adult concept, an establishment concept. The dichotomy would plague the company for all of its brief existence. These were not hardened and experienced organizers of the Saul Alinsky variety - - though the sacred name of Alinsky, the hugely successful American activist, was invoked time and time again. These were high school and college kids, for God's sake, wet behind the ears, with no understanding of how to organize anything and philosophically opposed to any kind of structured organization"
yet another book written by someone was *there* for the activism of the late 60's/early 70's who just takes for granted that the reader knows who Alinsky is, because duh doesn't everyone know about him and his #rulesforradicals? -
Jeff "never puts away anything, especially oven mitts" Cliff, Bringer of Nightmares 🦝🐙 🇱🇧🧯 🇨🇦 @[email protected] ·@TruthAndFreedom I think we're on the same page there. I've been collecting notes to possibly write a book based on what was going on in 1971, even. ~1971 was the same kind of transition year that 2020 was, in retrospect, in the 'what next, murder hornets?' amount of sheer wtfery and political change. "Oh we're just going to end the gold standard now?? what's next, the soviets are going to have a futurological congress?" #rulesforradicals -
@witchescauldron what is right wing? A bird needs two wings! Maybe you are projecting some Cultural Marxism ideology? #SalAlinsky #RulesForRadicals I read the book too!
