Portrait by Del Bey Nonviolent civil-rights activist. What do you think of the Civil Rights Movement today? "I think we are starting to see some signs of a resurrection of the Movement. I think some of us made some major errors in the late 60´s and 70´s. Letting our fatigue overwhelm us and not carry it to its fulfillment. We allowed people to organize violent Movements through ´agents provocateurs´. There were and are people who believe violence is a way of achieving good ends and if it´s for a good end it isn´t violent. You find people who will distinguish between terrorism and legitimate warfare. And when I challenge them to show me the difference they can´t. We need to take a look at where we are going. We need to look both at means and ends. If the ends are not ends of human equality, including everybody, even those who hate us ... if the means are not means that bring everybody together... as the older Bush used to say, ´we are in deep doo´... worse than that maybe." |
