Hi

Saul Alinksy wrote a seminal book called HANDBOOK FOR RADICALS and 
organised the back of the (stock)yards movement in Chicago in the late 
1940s.  He founded the Industrial Areas Foundation and trained, among 
others, Cesar Chavez, who formed the National Farm Workers Union in 
California in 1965.

Alinsky's philosophy was to work with whatever issues were considered 
important in the Community, not unlike the OS Marketplace.  He was 
against ideologically driven radicals who had their own agendas.

Regards

Kerry
