NEWS & LETTERS, May 2002
May Day 2002 ... In memory of our sister, Mary HolmesRevolutionary Legacy and FutureWORKING WOMEN FOR FREEDOM In 1976 three women put together an original pamphlet of working women speaking for themselves about liberation. We recently lost one of the authors, Mary Holmes, a long-time comrade and friend, to cancer (see page 5 to learn more about her). We know that her commitment to human freedom will live on. "Because workers think their own thoughts, they are every bit as 'intellectual' as professionals who delude themselves that all originality resides in their thoughts. In all cases, working women, here and now, whether in production or in the home, or in political activity or just thinking things through, are hewing out new paths to liberation, and it is their stories that must be told and become the basis of the new action and the new theory. Let the deed and the dialogue begin." — From WORKING WOMEN FOR FREEDOM. To order, contact News & Letters. |
