Totally. This is definitely needed.

Maybe go full retro and review Si Kahn's "Organizing: A Guide for Grassroots Leaders," from 1981, with regard to its timeless lessons or worn-out truths. Another would be the late Urvashi Vaid's "Virtual Equality, Virtual Equality: The Mainstreaming of Gay and Lesbian Liberation," from 1995, which is a timeless masterpiece that must be part of the organizing canon. Finally, Bill McKibben's "THE FLAG, THE CROSS, AND THE STATION WAGON A Graying American Looks Back at His Suburban Boyhood and Wonders What the Hell Happened," published last month, is well worth reading and reviewing.

James: Yes, I would listen to a podcast of you discussing the reviewed books with the authors. As for books to review--I would recommend "Dynamics of Organizing" by Shel Trapp.
