WHAT?S NEW, AT WWW.SOCIALISTHISTORY.COM
June 27, 2006

Now on line: two documents that provide a unique picture of how women
from the League for Socialist Action and Young Socialists took part in
the new women's liberation movement in the early 1970s ? and how they
developed as political leaders through that experience.

The documents deal with the critical period when the women's movement
was evolving from "consciousness raising" into organizing for mass
action.

** THE LSA AND THE TORONTO WOMEN'S CAUCUS (1972) reviews the
experiences of women from the LSA as founders and leaders of one of the
largest and most influential of the new feminist groups.

** OUR LINE IN PRACTICE (1973) discusses practical experiences in
building the movement to repeal Canada's abortion laws.

** And we've posted a NEW REVIEW OF CANADIAN BOLSHEVIKS, from the
journal Revolutionary History.

A RED PERSPECTIVE ON THE BLUES
Capitalism, Racism & Popular Music

Don?t miss Ian Angus?s unique multi-media presentation on how African-
Americans created the Blues in response to oppression and terrorism in
the southern United States, how it migrated from the rural south to
northern ghettos, and how the music has evolved as the Black community
has changed. Sponsored by the International Socialists
