From Vince Salandria to Phillip Nelson: Descent into the Maelstrom

[John Kelin]

[size=12]More than the political, the coup extends into the cultural and psychological, the spiritual and--put down that hamburger and listen to your government![/SIZE]

Indeed.

I believe these Salandria quotes are from his 1998 COPA speech. I've probably posted a link to it in the past, but what the hell. Here once again:

And here is a related text, the speech (also COPA 1998) of Vince's friend E. Martin Schotz:

And since I am on a roll, here is a pertinent, if not directly related, essay...James W. Douglass's article on the MLK Memphis trial:

By the way, I heard from Jim Douglass just the other day. Apparently he's got a new book out about Gandhi. The title may be Gandhi and the Unspeakable, though I'm not certain, haven't seen it, don't vouch for it, etc etc.

[I heard from him because the above-linked MLK article was somehow truncated when I uploaded it a few years ago. He asked me to fix it, and I did. The article is now there, unabridged. I'm not sure how it got screwed up. Mea culpa. He was so very nice about it. Me? I'd have been boiling.]
