Subject: RE: BS: The Future of America? A Ray of Hope
Thanks for bringing it to our attention. Another ray of hope (at least I think it will be) is the reformation of a national SDS.
Hopefully this organization can prove to be more cohesive than the original. While I was inspired by the SDS in many ways, they quickly became too radical for my comfort during my student years. But the young, activist left has been pretty invisible for way too long. We need them badly
Here are links to their press release on MLK day and to their national site (the website and links to local chapters are not real impressive--I think they are very nacent in an attempt to become national again.
