Max Weiss. In a Soviet America: Happy Days for American Youth. New York: Workers Library Publishers, 1935.

Lauinger Library was pleased to present the exhibit opening of Radicalism, A Work in Progress: Items from the Collection of Professor Maurice Jackson in March (see From the University Librarian: Collect Calling in this issue). The collection of pamphlets, broadsides and journals, generously donated to the Library by Professor Jackson, encompass in his words “the American Revolution, the Civil War, the Bonus March, support for Republican Spain and a free Ethiopia. They are about the fight against Hitlerism, Jim Crow, racism and male supremacy. Many are about Marxist economics, philosophy and socialism. They tell about the struggles for democracy in America and campaigns to free the Schottsboro Boys and Angela Davis. They are about the struggles of everyday working people of all races for jobs, equality and justice.” An illustrated catalog of the collection is available while copies last.
