Exclusive: Bill Ayers Talks About Election Night in Grant Park

From NBC Chicago, Jan 21, 2009:

Bill Ayers was "overflowing with happiness, relief, love" when he and his wife went to Grant Park with tens of thousands of Chicagoans to celebrate the election of President Barack Obama.

Ayers and his wife, Bernardine Dohrn, spoke exclusively with NBC Chicago's Dick Johnson about why they joined the Election Night celebration in the park, where 40 years before they helped stage the Days of Rage riots.

The couple said they got last-minute tickets from a friend to be in Grant Park that night.

"I couldn't stop crying a couple of times. I found the exact spot where I was beaten 40 years ago," Ayers said. "But I've never been in a crowd that large that wasn't edged with either anger or drunkenness or gluttony, and it was really an extraordinary feeling."

Bill Ayers: "I considered myself partly an anarchist then and I consider myself partly an anarchist now. I mean, I'm as much an anarchist as I am a Marxist which is to say I find a lot of the ideas in anarchism appealing."

The coordinated ensembles worn by the Royal family on the Grant Park stage on election night (photo above) were purposefully designed to be a signal sent to the world....a message in living color, if you will.

The color red in the communist flag represents the blood of the proletariat shed in events leading up to the Russian Revolution.

Red combined with black are the colors of the world-wide anarchism movement. The movements' flag is red and black. The two colors are most commonly used by the anarcho-syndicalists, the anarcho-communists and leftist unions and labor activists.

The black and red costumes of Obama and family on election night were by design both an outward show of ideological exultation combined with a sublimal message to the world that the presidential seat in the United States would finally be occupied by not only a black, but a red as well.
