Wm. Ayers-SDS Reunion, November 2007



"I saw a world in flames...
We had a view that we could change things. We believed that we could make a difference. Together we really are going to change things."

"We have to open our eyes and see the world as it is. Get a vision of what else could be what the options are, what the alternatives are.
I love the slogan from the world social forum, another world is possible."

"I think this is a moment of unprecedented opportunity for movement building. By that I mean a movement is quite diffent than a project or an organization or a campaign although all those things are part of it. A movement is when people can make the connection between, as we used to say in the civil rights system...between a rotting shack and a rotting system."

"Three great movements happening right now, that are disconnected. "

"The anti war movement - way too white.
The new orleans movement-way too isolated as an AA movement.
Immigrant rights movement-way too isolated as a latino movement"

"So how do we make the connection, find the common ground and work together. so this to me is the challenge. Develop a vision and talk to each other across the movements."
