Why Were There So Many Jews in SDS? Or, the Ordeal of Civility
Fast Capitalism ISSN 1930-014X Volume 1 • Issue 2 • 2005 doi:10.32855/fcapital.200502.008 Why Were There So Many Jews in SDS? Or, The Ordeal of Civility Mark Rudd I’ve been thinking about this subject for a long time, almost forty years. I first spoke publicly about the question in 1988 at the twentieth anniversary celebration of the Columbia strike. In a rambling 45 minute monologue I touched on a lot of subjects, but the only one people seemed to respond to was my recognition of our Jewish backgrounds as relevant to our opposition to the war and racism. That was during a mini-revival of Judaism and Jewish culture which took place among the not so new New Leftists in the 80’s. With the death of the socialist dream we were all searching for direction at the time. Unfortunately, I haven’t pursued the subject until now, but I do believe that the revolt of Jewish youth in the New Left of the sixties and seventies deserves to be studied and honored as an important chapter in the history of American Jews. [1] Before beginning to write, I checked out the subject on the internet. Googling the words “Jews and SDS,” the number two site that popped up was a page from “Jew Watch,” which monitors the ZOG, that is the Zionist Occupation Government of the United States. The piece was called, “How the Jews Controlled the New Left of the 1960’s.” Reading down, I found some decent scholarly references concerning the numerical preponderance of Jewish leaders and rank-and-file members of the New Left and SDS, at least until the late 1960’s. -
Columbia ’68: What Happened?
Columbia ’68: What Happened? Theo Sweeting (University of Nottingham) Finally, what long range goal is worthy of this rebellion? Obviously the question is not whether to work for revolution – armed, communist revolution – in America, but how, and what form it will take – John Jacobs, May 1968 1 John Jacobs sat down to type this statement, part of his revolutionary manifesto for the University of Columbia protests of 1968, ‘Bringing the War Home.’ But even a man so enraptured by the inevitability of revolutionary change as Jacobs could probably not have predicted that more than 40 years later the chain of events this document helped catalyse would be remembered as a defining moment for the American New Left in the 1960s, particularly in organisational histories of Students for a Democratic Society (SDS). Jacobs signed this document from his position as a member of the occupations of Low Library and Mathematics hall on the Columbia campus. In the wake of Tom Hayden’s famous call to create “two, three, many Columbias” across global campuses, Jacob’s words took on a prophetic tone in the immediate aftermath of the Columbia protests, when students from the Sorbonne in Paris sent the Strike Coordinating Committee (SCC), a telegram: “We’ve occupied a building in your honor. What do we do now?” 2 Jacob’s plan unfolded further when he and fellow Columbia SDS militants Mark Rudd and Ted Gold helped found the 1 John Jacobs, ‘Bringing the War Home’, May 1968; UPAC, Box 13, Folder 5, 1 2 Tom Hayden, ‘Two, Three, Many Columbias’, Ramparts, June 15, 1968. -
SDS's Failure to Realign the Largest Political Coalition in the 20Th Century
NEW DEAL TO NEW MAJORITY: SDS’S FAILURE TO REALIGN THE LARGEST POLITICAL COALITION IN THE 20TH CENTURY Michael T. Hale A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY December 2015 Committee: Clayton Rosati, Advisor Francisco Cabanillas Graduate Faculty Representative Ellen Berry Oliver Boyd-Barret Bill Mullen ii ABSTRACT Clayton Rosati, Advisor Many historical accounts of the failure of the New Left and the ascendency of the New Right blame either the former’s militancy and violence for its lack of success—particularly after 1968—or the latter’s natural majority among essentially conservative American voters. Additionally, most scholarship on the 1960s fails to see the New Right as a social movement. In the struggles over how we understand the 1960s, this narrative, and the memoirs of New Leftists which continue that framework, miss a much more important intellectual and cultural legacy that helps explain the movement’s internal weakness. Rather than blame “evil militants” or a fixed conservative climate that encircled the New Left with both sanctioned and unsanctioned violence and brutality––like the Federal Bureau of Investigation’s (FBI) counter intelligence program COINTELPRO that provide the conditions for a unstoppable tidal wave “with the election of Richard M. Nixon in 1968 and reached its crescendo in the Moral Majority, the New Right, the Reagan administration, and neo-conservatism” (Breines “Whose New Left” 528)––the key to this legacy and its afterlives, I will argue, is the implicit (and explicit) essentialism bound to narratives of the “unwinnability” of especially the white working class. -

Making a Difference: Techno-Punk and Terra-Ism
Making a Noise – Making a Difference: Techno-Punk and Terra-ism GRAHAM ST JOHN UNIVERSITY OF QUEENSLAND Abstract This article charts the convergence of post-punk/post-settler logics in the techno-punk development in Australia. Exploring how punk would become implicated in the cultural politics of a settler society struggling for legitimacy, it maps the ground out of which Labrats sound system (and their hybrid outfit Combat Wombat) arose. It provides an entry to punk through an analysis of the concept of hardcore in the context of cultural mobilisations which, following more than two centuries of European colonisation, evince desires to make reparations and forge alliances with Indigenous people and landscape. To achieve this, the article traces the contours and investigates the implications of Sydney’s techno-punk emergence (as seen in The Jellyheads, Non Bossy Posse, Vibe Tribe and Ohms not Bombs), tracking the mobile and media savvy exploits of 1990s DIY sound systems and techno terra-ists, aesthetes and activists adopting intimate and tactical media technologies, committing to independent and decentralised EDM creativity, and implicated in a movement for legitimate presence.

Though the name stands for "Counterintelligence Program," the targets were not enemy spies. The FBI set out to eliminate "radical" political opposition inside the US. When traditional modes of repression (exposure, blatant harassment, and prosecution for political crimes) failed to counter the growing insurgency, and even helped to fuel it, the Bureau took the law into its own hands and secretly used fraud and force to sabotage constitutionally - protected political activity. Its methods ranged far beyond surveillance, and amounted to a domestic version of the covert action for which the CIA has become infamous throughout the world.

Watco seeks a variance from the Chicago Department of Public Health’s (“CDPH”) Rules and Regulations for the Control of Emissions from the Handling and Storage of Bulk Material Piles, Part D (“Dust Rules”).1 These comments are submitted on behalf of the Southeast Side Coalition to Ban Petcoke (‘’SSCBP”), a community group fighting for a healthy, thriving neighborhood free of manganese, petroleum coke, and other toxins; the Southeast Environmental Task Force (“SETF”), a community group dedicated to improving the Calumet neighborhood’s environment; and the Natural Resources Defense Council (“NRDC”), and its thousands of members and activists in the City of Chicago, including residents of the Southeast Side. I. Introduction CDPH should deny Watco’s variance request, because Watco has failed to demonstrate that the requested variance from the Dust Rules—for materials that contain less than 2% manganese—will not have an adverse impact on the community and the environment. As we have explained in many previously submitted comment letters, this community is an environmentally overburdened community with levels of 1 Rules and Regulations for the Control of Emissions from the Handling and Storage of Bulk Material Piles, Part D (2019), https://www.chicago.gov/content/dam/city/depts/cdph/InspectionsandPermitting/Control_Emissionsfro mHandling&StoringBulkMaterials_January2019.pdf. -

Oakland: Dark Star in an Expanding Universe
Oakland: Dark Star in an Expanding Universe Richard A. Walker Department of Geography University of California Berkeley CA 94720 [email protected] Unpublished paper Draft of Nov. 21, 1997 ANYONE MAY DOWNLOAD AND USE THIS PAPER WITH THE USUAL COURTESY OF CITATION. COPYRIGHT 2004. “Somebody, please, give me a reason to stop saying what I am saying.” --Oakland rapper, Paris1 Oakland is a great American city. But like so many ordinary, workaday places across the country it is disdained and dismissed. Oakland has always played Other to San Francisco, ugly duckling in a bay of swans, sow among pearls, a humdrum and workaday city squatting enviously across from the Golden Gate. In the kind of boastful projection of east coast urbanity typical of the 19th century, the undistinguished settlements across San Antonio slough from little Oakland came to be known as Brooklyn. The appellation might better have been given to Oakland itself, forever just out of reach of the Pacific Coast Manhattan, and following a similar trajectory from ferryboat suburb to brawling industrial giant to present-day catchment for the world’s migrants. Oakland is everything San Francisco is not: never glorious, never glorified, never gloating. Yet Oakland has a story, too, and one that has as many lessons as its cousin across the bay and a geographic landscape replete with both stunning success and sordid failure. Oakland's subordinance has not been as complete as San Franciscans might have hoped, however. After the turn of the century Oakland and the East Bay became the principal arena of growth and the industrial dynamo of the region, a second orb of the metropolis challenging the primacy of the old core.
