  • Women and Communism in Twentieth-Century California
    BOOK REVIEW Gendering Radicalism: Women and Communism in Twentieth-Century California Beth Slutsky. Lincoln: University of Nebraska Press, 2015. 286 pp. $45 hardcover (ISBN 978-0-8032-5475-6) Reviewed by Jessie Clark University of Nevada, Reno In Gendering Radicalism, Beth Slutsky produces an important portrait of radical political organizing in twentieth-century America through the stories of three women who served in successive leadership positions for the Communist party in California from 1919 through 1992: Charlotte Anita Whitney, Dorothy Ray Healey, and Kendra Claire Harris Alexander. Working and organizing within different but overlapping epochs of radical reform movements in America—the Bolshevik Revolution (Witney), the U.S. labor movement (Healey), and the Cold War and Civil Rights Movement (Alexander)—their stories reflect the morphology of the Communist Party as it wrestled with defining debates over race, gender, and class in Ameri- ca. To that end, this book also reflects the unique contributions of each of these women to the Party, and the inevitable tensions around the position of women in the Party. Finally, this book explores the role of California in centering and shaping the character of politics in America. For its tolerance toward more radical political philosophies, California then and now stirred the winds to pull American politics leftward. In this regard, this story of three women in California is not one that unfolds in isolation to other lives involved in and touched by the Communist Party across America. Whitney, Healey, and Alexander’s political visions, while mediated in the American West, were ultimately informed by and expressed a shared American expe- rience of economic disenfranchisement, racism, and sexism.

  • CORA WEISS ORAL HISTORY PROJECT the Reminiscences Of
    CORA WEISS ORAL HISTORY PROJECT The Reminiscences of Cora Weiss Columbia Center for Oral History Columbia University 2014 PREFACE The following oral history is the result of a recorded interview with Cora Weiss conducted by Ronald J. Grele on May 21, 29, June 5, 10, July 10, 16, and November 20, 2014. This interview is part of the Cora Weiss Oral History Project. The reader is asked to bear in mind that s/he is reading a verbatim transcript of the spoken word, rather than written prose. Weiss – Session 1 – 1 Audio Transcription Center Session #1 Interviewee: Cora Weiss Location: New York, NY Interviewer: Ronald J. Grele Date: May 21, 2014 Q: [laughs] Suppose we begin with your birth. You were born in Sydenham Hospital? Weiss: Sydenham Hospital in Harlem was a small, private hospital, which I think my mother found because she must have investigated pre-Google that they had the lowest infant mortality rate in the city, so there we were. And I always had a good feeling for 126th Street. Later, not too much later, when my own children were small, I became a volunteer teacher at PS129, which was not far from Sydenham. And that was a wonderful experience. Q: Did you then live in Harlem, or— Weiss: No. Q: —or, where were you living? Weiss: We were married and moved into Greenwich Village, first apartment.

  • The Jewish Bakers Union and Yiddish Culture in East Los Angeles, 1908-1942
    UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA Los Angeles Visions of a Jewish Future: the Jewish Bakers Union and Yiddish Culture in East Los Angeles, 1908-1942 A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree Doctor of Philosophy in History By Caroline Elizabeth Luce 2013 © Copyright by Caroline Elizabeth Luce 2013 ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION Visions of a Jewish Future: the Jewish Bakers Union and Yiddish Culture In East Los Angeles, 1908-1942 by Caroline Elizabeth Luce Doctor of Philosophy in History University of California, Los Angeles, 2013 Professor Eric R. Avila, Co-Chair Professor Frank Tobias Higbie, Co-Chair This dissertation explores the activism of a cohort of Eastern European Jewish immigrants who came to Los Angeles in the first decade of the twentieth century. They focused their efforts in Boyle Heights, a residential subdivision east of the Los Angeles River, where they spearheaded the creation of Yiddish-based unions, left-wing political parties, and fraternal, cultural, and educational organizations. Scholars have long assumed that the development of Yiddish life in Boyle Heights followed the same course as in Jewish communities elsewhere and referred to the neighborhood as “Los Angeles’ Lower East Side.” Using Yiddish-language newspapers, journals and biographies, this dissertation probes the neighborhood’s reputation, showing how the area’s particular geography, pattern of settlement, and unique ethno-racial diversity ii influenced the dynamics of Yiddish-based labor and community organizing in the neighborhood. The Jewish radicals who settled in Boyle Heights had been involved in revolutionary socialist and nationalist movements in Eastern Europe and in the American cities where they lived before making their way west, and sought to replicate these experiences in their new home.
