Culture Front- Publishing, Literature - Description:
- 11 pages. Translated Summary: Cover has a drawing of a classroom with a sign that reads, "Long Live Our School" along with a poster of Lenin. Text on the cover touts the achievements of the school's first year, but promises not to be satisfied, nor tire, when Talmud-Torahs are stuffed with worker's children and dozens more attend "Arbeter" Ring schools (referring sarcastically to the 'workmen' in the Workmen's Circle). Topics for the compositions are quite diverse, and include: "Russia and the Soviet Union", "The Jews in Former Russia, and in the Soviet Union", "Pioneers and Boy Scouts", "The I.L.D." [International Labor Defense], "Our Play", "The Paris Commune", "What do our Parents Do for Us?", "Lenin" "Hirsh Lekert", "The First of May", "Child Workers", "I'm Not Writing a Composition", "Our Concert", "Kalman Marmor"
- Notes:
- The Jewish People’s Fraternal Order was the largest ‘national’ section of the International Workers Order (IWO) which focused on cultural awareness and celebration, mutual support especially in health insurance coverage, and anti-fascist activities. The IWO also gave particular emphasis to supporting the rights and interests of African Americans.
