...vast majority of students will not itself actually take any action in support of the demands (not even as minimal a one as joining a picket line). The only people SDS can rely on to do anything are the 400 or so who make up the radical hard core. But it is wrong to thing, because of this, that the continuing effort to gain and hold massive student support on the issues can be dispensed with...
Paradoxically, the agitators have concentrated their ire on Chrysler, partly because it has so many black workers, including a considerable number of recent recruits from the hard-core unemployed. Nearly 35% of the company's 153,000 U.S. employees and 10% of its foremen and higher-ranking workers are members of minority groups. The troublemakers have also begun organizing at Ford's Rouge complex, and are threatening to move into General Motors' gear-and-axle plant in Detroit...

When production cutbacks brought the layoff of some 3,200 workers by the end of February, however, most of those affected were recently hired ghetto dwellers...
...refutation. It would be a refutation of his own book, but the time has passed when Maitland can possibly admit to his own duplicity. It can be seen from this exquisitely complex confrontation that Keneally is far from making a loaded brief for the modernist clergy against the hard-core traditionalists. There are grievous sins on both sides...
