Rising from each organizing victory are the seeds of the next organizing fight - Alinsky paraphrased. (too lazy to look up the exact quote)
There are many branches on the Alinksky tree, the Buffalo-Jack Kemp branch and the NHS-Neighborhood Housing Services branch are a couple of the few that actually have “good intentions”.
ACORN and NTIC-NPA and the Bob Schakowsky types blatantly teach that organizers should not try to solve problems because if the problems are solved there will be no reason left to organize ... and furthermore it will be discovered that most problems are solved by individual effort and not by collective effort. Go to a “strategy meeting/staff meeting”. They are very clear about it.
And, BTW, Gail Cincotta did not start NTIC. Shel Trapp started it in the early 70s as a response from the older Alinsky groups to the new Alinsky kid on the block ... ACORN of LittleRock. Gail Cincotta was just a loudmouth Shel put in front of the cameras.
