Quoted from a commentary: "Overcoming the fears associated with seizing power will be one of the biggest obstacles for the American Left to overcome."
However, the next paragraph begins: "In America, this means capturing the State by electoral means. In a liberal democracy where basic human rights are protected and access to the ballot is universal, there is no motivation for armed struggle." The author must have written this before the 2000 election, in which the universal ballot boiled down to nine Court justices. But it makes for a soothing read the morning after mass violence in Baltimore. _______________________________________________ pen-l mailing list [email protected] https://lists.csuchico.edu/mailman/listinfo/pen-l
