Anyone care to suggest some good reads? It can be fiction/nonfiction, political/economical, or any other combination of the two that you can imagine. (e.g. Saul Alinsky's Rules for Radicals, or any other book that you think everyone on RevLeft should read.)

Also, feel free to list some notable philosophers that you look to for guidance, in issues of relevance. (e.g. Saul Alinsky, Karl Marx, etc.)

Erich Fromm - 'The Fear of Freedom'

I was warned that won't make me popular here, but I think it's a masterpiece.

Ches guerrilla warfare is a good start to some tactical info, though, fighting in the streets is far better.

C.L.R. James' The Black Jacobins is probably the finest piece of Marxist historical writing ever.
