 Zimbabwe and the myth of democratic change International Communist Current
It called itself the Movement for Democratic Change, but while it offered lots of democratic rhetoric it could not offer any change in the situation for those who live in Zimbabwe.
These are the things that concern people in Zimbabwe, along with the terror of state repression, Zimbabwe's participation in the war in the Democratic Republic of the Congo and the hunger that comes from extensive food shortages.
Just as with the first post-apartheid election in South Africa, where lengthy queues were shown as evidence of people's gratitude for the opportunity to vote, the Zimbabwean election has been used as an argument against growing 'cynicism' about the democratic process in Europe.

Others, such as the Platform for Democratic Communication, Peoples Communication Charter, MacBride Round Table and Cultural Environment Movement, are concerned from the outset with democratisation of the media domain, spreading the message sometimes to thousands of people and their organisations.

It is associated with the Peoples Communication Charter, a civil society initiative that promotes the rights of people in media and communication and which in the last few years has been endorsed by many thousands of organisations and individuals; and has close links with a number of other current initiatives.

You hear some young peasant farmers talking; you see some movement trying to get a hold on their reality...I think the fight is still going on.
So, people realise that they are going to have to do something, and this something is not an individual thing like trying to find a 'godfather' who will give you a job or hook you up with some drug-traffickers, or going away on a boat - such options cannot work for everyone, for the collectivity.

 A Popular Movement for Social Justice - Pedro Noguera / In Motion Magazine
Clearly, a mass movement will be necessary to counter not only the attacks on affirmative action, but the broader offensive directed at poor and working class people generally.
I am struck by the fact that many of the young activists I speak to are more interested in building a broad movement than they are in finding the comfort of a small group of people who think like they do.

I’m just interested in making sure there’s a visible anti-war movement." The problem with this position is that it makes "visibility" of the movement dependent on the inaudibility of the speakers, and the "success" of the rallies dependent on how many people are ignorant of or indifferent to the politics of the organizers.
But in the early anti-Vietnam War movement the democratic left was much more prominent (SDS) and the Marxists were adjuncts (SWP).
Inside the left this is a big different; as between the left and the American people or, if you prefer, others along the political spectrum, it is not a difference at all.
