I reply (WS): Saying "we are primarily targeting white radicals, but non-whites may also join if they wish" may indeed be less than a steriling record of radical organizing. Saying "we are targeting black radicals, non-blacks please keep out" is not even 'less than sterling" - it is the testimony to the sorry state of what passes for 'radicalism' nowadays - the reactionary defence of entrenched identities.
That, BTW, reminds me about the Rutgers President Lawrence making racist comments a few years ago. This sparked a massive protest action whose momentum has been utterly lost as soon as Black activists told the whites "it's a black issue, please stay out of it." Not only did Lawrence survive
(even though the NJ Governor Whitman intially refused to defend him), but nothing was gained in terms of programs aimed at minorities at Rutgers. Yet another example of id politics serving as a career spingboard for the leaders while leaving everyone else behind.
