<HTML>Yoshie: << That's what some LBO-talkers say.  Why should their opinion matter more than those of the Brown student activists of color? >> This is sanctamonious, race guilting nonsense, substituting for the complete lack of any argument on principle [that demonstrates why attacks on freedom of expression are to be supported] and on strategy [that shows why this entire mess has been a great victory for anyone but Horowitz]. We are back to the brain dead bullshit of the 1960s, where one was to support whatever the Black Panthers did, which just happened to include all manner of indefensible outrages and crimes, because they were the revolutionary vanguard of color. It is embarassing to read such prattle on LBO-Talk. Leo Casey United Federation of Teachers 260 Park Avenue South New York, New York 10010-7272 (212-598-6869) Power concedes nothing without a demand. It never has, and it never will. If there is no struggle, there is no progress. Those who profess to favor freedom, and yet deprecate agitation are men who want crops without plowing the ground. They want rain without thunder and lightning. They want the ocean without the awful roar of its waters. -- Frederick Douglass -- </HTML>
