lord_casek Posted February 12, 2010 Share Posted February 12, 2010 Not true. Thats what community activism is: paying respect to other individuals. A question: Does this, in your opinion, justify mob rule? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soup Posted February 12, 2010 Author Share Posted February 12, 2010 Yeah bro neighborhood gardens, localizing power grids, and demonstrating to stop local prisionguard brutality is totally mob rule. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IOU Posted February 12, 2010 Share Posted February 12, 2010 You can't really have a community when the individual and their needs can be held above the whole. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soup Posted February 12, 2010 Author Share Posted February 12, 2010 That sounds more like a ruling class than an individual. Oakland's a very pluralistic society and yet we still have basic necessities to come together on instead of fighting eachother for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soup Posted February 12, 2010 Author Share Posted February 12, 2010 Do i think it's ran by the "ruling class?" What do you even mean by ruling class? Congress? A thinktank in some federal office building? No I think it's founded and ran by Van Jones.. You know where community activist groups like the black panther party and this originated from? Churches. Small, local community churches where individuals gather and discuss neighborhood issues. Im not preaching religion, im saying when you live in the hood that's where you go and that's where change happens to begin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
