   I'm sure Jenny has read just about Manning Marable has ever
written. In my collection of Socialist Revolution/Socialist Review
back issues, somehow I've lost the issue with his long piece on the
huge Gary, Indiana convention (scenes shown in, "Eyes on the Prize, "
see Amiru Baraka, Jesse Jackson outflank liberal Democrat hacks like
Charles Riggs) of the nationalist/left National Black Political
Convention (NBPC) and subsequent Black left National Black Independent
Political Party (NBIPP) that Marable was active in.

   Comments on why the NBIPP failed?
