[lbo-talk] boots on OO as neighborhood-based organizing

[shag carpet bomb]

among other things, he talks about the difference between OWS and OO, 
arguing that OO is organizing at the neighborhood level, involving people 
in campaigns, as opposed to OWS which pursued tactics that involved getting 
the message in the media. He doesn't want to necessarily dismiss the 
usefulness of OWS, indeed it's centrality, to OO. Indeed, he thinks that 
getting out the message to a worldwide audience was key to the initial 
mobilization of resources.

he also traces a history of radicalism that has contributed to current 
militancy and organization which sustains a tradition of protest, even when 
the struggle appears moribund.
