[lbo-talk] Black Blocs & Other Peerennials

[Carrol Cox]

No, there is nothing wrong with being a professor, & in the past I've
defended professors against attacks by Lou on the Marxism list. In a way I
intended it as a compliment: he would have made a great university teacher &
scholar. And scholars are fucking important, even many of the dry-as-dust
type. But the relationship of a professor to a seminar is rather different
from the relationship among activists on the left, and like many (but not
all) professors, Lou can't see the difference.

A course in film history taught by Lou would shake the rafters.

There's nothing like a professor running away from having been one.

But what is this toe jelly thing? Is that a midwestern turn of phrase?
