The Organic Intellectual

The project was saying that unless you can do all the shitty jobs, it's just not going to work. If you're going to be a revolutionary, you need to be able to handle reality. The organic intellectual is the worker. He's there. He intimately and visually understands what it is to do a 12-hour day. And through that visceral understanding, he can then engage with the workers,. understand it, and come up with a strategy, a praxis, as you might say, which is going to work."
