→Black Liberation Movement
The Progressive Labor Party {PLP) was pushing as a strategy the Worker Student Alliance (WSA) which postulated that students should unite with the traditional Marxist revolutionary power in the U.S., 'the workers,' to make revolution. The [[Bill Ayers]]/[[Bernardine Dohrn]] faction and Revolutionary Youth Movement II (RYM II), according to [[Mark Rudd]], considered the fixation on 'the workers' as "racist in that the the PLP didn't want to see non-white people as the revolutionary agents." The Black Panthers demanded that SDS expel the PLP "for its racism in not supporting national liberation."<ref>[http://www.markrudd.com/?sds-and-weather/the-death-of-sds.html ''The Death of SDS,''] Mark Rudd.

The Dohrn/Ayers group called for a program of confrontation and action by white students in the style of [[Castro]]ite guerillas in a supportive role to black revolution without regard to the white working class. Ayers and Dohrn felt armed struggle of blacks for self-determination would result in the victory of [[socialism]] in the United States without any reliance on white workers. They saw their role as supportive of the black liberation struggle and one which involved direct confrontation with the authority of the capitalist state.
