Student Socialist


The Student Socialist newsletter was the organ of the Socialist Youth League which was the youth group of the Independent Socialist League, lead by Max Shachtman and Hal Draper among many other socialist intellectuals of the 1950s.
Thanks the Riazanov Library Project and the comrades of the Socialist History Project for initiating this project.
