Re: Report Back from SDS conference

I wasn't at the conference, so I can't comment.
But whatever you think of Joffrey Stewart (the correct spelling), who I have know since 1965 (some 40 years now), he is NOT an "anti-semite." He is strongly anti-Zionist, and an anarchist. I don't agree with him on a lot of things, but he is a consistent principled person, and has been for many years. You are free to disagree with him, which I do, but please don't slander him. He also was involved in some important struggles here in Chicago over a barbershop in downtown Chicago in the late 50s or early 60s which would not give him a haircut because he is African-American.

Re: Re: Report Back from SDS conference

He is an anti-semite. How can you even doubt it?

"consistent & principled"

one can argue that folks like hitler and stalin were "consistent and principled". those aspects or characteristics alone don't make one progressive...one can be consistent about bad principles
 

Re: Re: Report Back from SDS conference

I have to agree that he most certainly is an anti-semite no matter what his positions are on other issues. I've read many of his handouts, and he talks about the worldwide Jewish conspiracy, the "protocols of the elders of zion" garbage, and many other standard anti-semitic blatherings. I don't know anyone in the Palestine solidarity community that supports or even tolerates him. I personally will not tolerate anti-semitism.
