Why We Blog

Most people do not accumulate a body of experience. Most people go through life undergoing a series of happenings, which pass through their systems undigested. Happenings become experiences when they are digested, when they are reflected on, related to general patterns, and synthesized.

Great quote. I didn't know anyone still read Alinsky. Pretty sure I don't.

I admit that I didn't read Alinsky, I read a article for school that had the quote in it.

No shame in that. I admire his thinking about what makes a community, I fret about his socialism, and I do both without ever having read him.
