Name That Subversive
Who said this?
“You say you are a radical. Perhaps even a revolutionist. You belong to this or that school of social philosophy. You believe that present conditions are wrong; that they create misery and poverty, crime and degradation. You long for a saner and happier life. What are you doing to bring it about? You know that it is not enough to curse the capitalist, to rave at the intellectual, or to sneer at the masses. That may be good to relieve your feelings. But it does not get you anywhere. Nor it is enough to say, ‘what’s the use?’ When you are hungry, you don’t satisfy yourself that way.”
The first person to correctly name this radical will win $53,492 in unmarked bills.*
Hint: This isn’t something of mine...and it’s not Derrick Jensen or Ward Churchill either.
*Offer void where prohibited and is subject to change at any time for any reason (especially if someone guesses correctly).
