Tell The Public?
“A.A.’s of worldly prominence sometimes say, “If I tell the public that I am in Alcoholics Anonymous, then that will bring in many others.” Thus they express the belief that our anonymity Tradition is wrong – at least for them. “They forget that, during their drinking days, prestige and the achievement of worldly ambition were their principal aims. They do not realize that, by breaking anonymity, they are unconsciously pursuing those old and perilous illusions once more. They forget that the keeping of one’s anonymity often means a sacrifice of one’s desire for power, prestige, and money. They do not see that if these strivings became general in A.A., the course of our whole history would be changed; that we would be sowing the seeds of our own destruction as a society. “Yet I can happily report that while many of us are tempted – and I have been one – few of us in America actually break our anonymity at the public-media level.”
Letter, 1958
