“What is the American radical? The radical is that unique person to
whom the common good is the greatest personal value. He is that
person who genuinely and completely believes in mankind. The
radical is so completely identified with mankind that he personally
shares the pain, the injustices, and the sufferings of all his fellow
men.”
Saul Alinsky, Rules for Radicals
