A Photo History of Community Organizers

Posted on 22:31 by Unknown
Wow. The repost of my little blog, expanding on Jim Wallis' original ideas, has been burning up the wires over at DailyKos this afternoon. It spent a better part of the afternoon as the top "recommended" journal, and is on the way to having 400 comments.

Wow. This issue clearly touches a button. I certainly do not agree with every comment, and find some of them offensive in language and tone. But it's interesting to see the passion there. Take a
look.

I think this "dissing" of Community Organizers and their "responsibilities" is going to backfire...but that's my hunch.

In the midst of the many comments was one from Beverly, about her own diary, entitled "
A Photo History of Community Organizers."

It's worth a quick read. Or, enjoy the video version beyond the jump, which has the benefit of a sweet U2 soundtrack:
