It seems Saul Alynski's book "Rules for Radicals" continues to gain popularity in the past year. Here is a good article to read. Looks like it is time to dust off our copy that we bought a while ago (first edition from 1971) and start reading it.
From the dedication of the book:
"Lest we forget at least an over-the-shoulder acknowledgement to the very first radical: from all our legends, mythology, and history (and who is to know where mythology leaves off and history begins -- or which is which), the first radical known to man who rebelled against the establishment and did it so effectively that he at least won his own kingdom -- Lucifer"
Granted there are far more admirable activists than Alynski and Lucifer (Mother Theresa comes to mind...even Jesus)...but it behooves one who wants to make a positive impact in the world today to understand how the left operates.
We have our copy...
...do you have yours?
