The Imagination of the New Left: A Global Analysis of 1968 by George Katsiaficas
"Beginning with an overview of historical moments of world-wide transition, Katsiaficas delineates the global turmoil of 1968, including a study of the Prague Spring; the student movements in Mexico, Japan, Sri Lanka, Italy, Yugoslavia, and Spain; the Tet offensive in Vietnam, and guerrilla movements in Latin America; the Democratic Convention in Chicago; and the assassination of Martin Luther King." -South End Press
After an exciting and productive meeting last week, Nuts & Bolts will be meeting again this week. The agenda is as follows:
- NYMAA website technical stuff (revamping, webhosting, etc.)
- 11/1 General Assembly location, agenda, and potential spokescouncil model
- Continued discussion of NYMAA as a membership organization
- Reportbacks, as necessary
- Spreading the word about the Wall St Bailout Protest (Working Group endorsements?)
This week the White House is going to try to push through the biggest robbery in world history with nary a stitch of debate to bail out the Wall Street bastards who created this economic apocalypse in the first place.
