We have to bury "dead Stalinists" and live in the present, building a new American Left based on what exists today. If a new American Left is to emerge (which may or may not happen), it can't be like the old Communist Party or its competitors on the Left, nor will it be like the movements of the long Sixties. Culture and society today are not like those of their times.
***********************
"Let the dead bury the dead' as the old saying goes. (applause).
Let's not forget history or allow it to be dropped "down the memory hole" nor what we need (would be useful) to preserve of what went before the here and now. But of course, you know that better than most, Yoshie.
communist greetings,
