| WHY THE NAME "RADICAL JACK" "Radical Jack" was a nickname created by the establishment press for myself, Jack Lieberman, when I was a leader of the "Students For A Democratic Society" (SDS) chapter at Florida State University in 1968. At the time SDS was outlawed by the State of Florida Board of Regents for being a "subversive organization". The "Radical Jack" nickname along with the banning of SDS were an attempt by the power structure in Florida to isolate the progressive movement by creating a climate of fear based on steriotypes that would be used to block a serious public discussion of the issues being raised by the student movement. Those issues, of war, racism, sexism, environmental degredation and class oppression were issues that the power structure did not wish to seriosly address. I was eventually expelled from FSU in 1971 for teaching a course on revolutionary politics in a Student Government sponsored so called "Free University" program. It seems freedom, then as now, was OK as long as you did not reach too many people with "subversive" ideas! I am now 61 and while I am older, and hopefully wiser, I have not abandoned the "idealism" of my youth. Unfortunately today it is obvious that the burning issues that motivated my generation into revolutionary activism, are still unresolved. As the disasterous wars in Iraq and Afghanistan show, the same military industrial complex still controls the U.S. with the same disasterous results. WHY WE HAVE SET UP THIS WEBSITE As a result of the encouragement of several members of today's new generation of young revolutionary and progressive activists we have decided to appropriate the nick name of my youth and use it as a symbol of the continuity of the stuggles of the sixties today. Hopefully this reincarnation of "Radical Jack" will create a catchy, easy to remember name for our web site that will be used by activists to promote the progressive and revolutionary movements through the propaganda of the deed, through making a statement with what you wear!
