"In our desire to appear reasonable we have lost the willingness to fight for what is good and decent. We have marginalized and prostituted ourselves. We cannot expect any help from either the Democratic or the Republican parties—they are a part of the problem. They are essentially one and the same—a party of the corporate oligarchy. Our loyalty does not belong to political parties that do not serve the interests of the working class people. It belongs to truth. It belongs to justice. It belongs to one another. Together—united---we are an irresistible force for revolutionary change in America. Let us purge the corruption from the veins of government. Let us organize around the principle of social and environmental justice. Let us go forth into the streets and wreck havoc upon the economic machinery of war and injustice. The kind of America we envision is possible. A terrible price will probably have to be paid. But in the end it will be worth it if we can find the courage now to go forward. Future generations will be glad we did." - - - Charles Sullivan
