 Break Their Haught Power Joe Hill
Rosemont also evokes the social space created by the IWW’s meeting halls scattered across the U.S. Rosemont confronts the problem that “biographical data on Hill is discouragingly skimpy”, though “he is probably the best-known hobo in U.S. history”.
Rosemont attacks Dubofsky and other academics for seeing the IWW as in decline in 1919 and says, no, it was 1924, but he doesn't ever devote one line to describing the reasons for that downturn.
Of course, Rosemont, given the vastness of what he does manage to do, is not obliged to answer many questions about "what happened" after the demise of the IWW (which he seems to only grudgingly concede, in a couple of asides, ever took place).

Ron Sakolsky's introduction does a fine job of identifying both the importance of Franklin Rosemont in keeping the surrealist tradition alive and the particular circumstances of his conversion to this radical cultural movement that will be instantly recognizable to anybody from the generation of baby boomers who rejected everything that American consumerism stood for.
Born in 1944, Franklin Rosemont had two parents who would obviously be a counterforce against any tendency to drift into the kind of narcissistic estheticism that characterized the worst of European surrealism.
For Rosemont and his comrades, anarchism is attractive because it lacks the stodginess of the Leninist tradition.

But Rosemont has had the endurance to follow every trail leading to and from Joe Hill, and we the readers are much richer for it.
Rosemont freely admits that there is frustratingly little concrete evidence about much of Hill's life, but he chooses to try and flesh out a lengthy book anyways.
Rosemont even suggests that it would be a good idea for further research, by someone else.

 Interactivist Info Exchange | Franklin Rosemont, "Philip Lamantia's Surrealist Poetry as Revolutionary Praxis"   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
Franklin Rosemont generally knows his onions but I think it is wrong for him to dismiss everything published in the press and internet after Lamantia's death as full of mistakes and distortions, and to assert or imply the corollary that he alone knows the truth.
Rosemont's assertion that those who say or write that Philip embraced the Catholic faith and went to mass are engaging in "malicious gossip and defamation" is the kind of sloganeering crap that dickheads like Agnew and Nixon ought to be remembered for, not a guy like Mr.
Rosemont has written many interesting and useful essays over the years and his refusal here to accept all of what Philip said and did about the church I hope is simply ignorance.

Penelope and Franklin Rosemont along with other members of the Chicago Surrealist Group, followers of French artist Andre Breton, whose hospitality and approval they enjoyed in Paris during the sixties, are still avidly engaged in Surrealist practice.

L’ispirazione venne a Rosemont quando ebbe la fortuna scoprire l’ IWW nel 1959 e dalla sua capacità di avvicinare un buon numero di rappresentanti dei “bei tempi andati” che continuavano a riunirsi in quel che rimaneva delle sedi dei Wobblies a Chicago e Seattle, in particolare.
Rosemont scrive, di nuovo durante una trattazione molto interessante sulle attività dell’IWW in quei posti.
Rosemont è pieno di argomenti che possono tenere fede al sottotitolo del libro che suona “la formazione della controcultura di una classe lavoratrice rivoluzionaria” e in linea di massima ci riesce molto bene.

Rosemont approaches wrong numbers from the usually-held opinion that they are irrational problems, indescribable difficulties, and pointless nuisances, and from this vantage point, he cheerfully unravels skeins of ideas for all sorts of poetic solutions for a wide variety of situations.
In this respect, Rosemont’s book can be compared with surrealist André Breton’s research projects of the mid-thrities into “convulsive beauty” (such as the 1937 un-novel Mad Love), except that Rosemont’s examination, though packed full of Big Ideas and peppered with the occasional recondite reference, is far more accessible and fun for general readers.
Rosemont’s last book, the massive and revelatory Joe Hill: The IWW and the Making of a Revolutionary Workingclass Counterculture (reviewed here), was a scrupulous excavation of a lost cultural history, but this time around, he has tackled a more ephemeral (but no less intriguing) set of concerns about totally free thought and expression.

Franklin Rosemont's important new book presents a fresh and in-depth study of the life and work of the famous Wobbly bard, and of the revolutionary counterculture he came to personify.
Examining Hill's status as a "near-mythic" figure in history as well as his enormous influence-on Wob artists; other radicals, songwriters, and poets; on movements as varied as the 1910s Chicago Renaissance and the 1950s Beat Generation-Rosemont also examines the many appearances by Hill and the IWW in popular culture, including mass-market mysteries, science-fiction, and rock'n'roll.
Franklin Rosemont's introduction discusses the IWW/hobohemian roots of the College, outlines the Janitor's radical (and Dadaist) critique of education, and relates Brundage's life, the College and Chicago's hobo/beat scenes to the broader struggles for a better, freer, truly eqalitarian and non-exploitative society.

Coming from radical and counter-cultural backgrounds such as the IWW, the Rebel Worker group, Solidarity Bookshop, and the Louis Lingg Memorial Chapter of the SDS, it's no surprise that Franklin and Penelope Rosemont and their allies have forcefully asserted surrealism's revolutionary essence to combat widespread misunderstanding, especially prevalent in the United States.
In his introduction, anthologist Ron Sakolsky gives us a comprehensive overview of that first groups' development, from the Roosevelt University Anti-Poetry Club and RU Wobblies, the Rosemont's meeting with Andre Breton and their months-long participation in the Paris Surrealist Group, through the infamous Gallery Bugs Bunny and Gallery Black Swan on up to the present.
As Franklin Rosemont writes in his foreword, this book is aimed at "the young rebels of all ages who, since Seattle '99, have been creating vital outposts of resistance, revolt and revolution" worldwide.
