John Reed Clubs

    0.01 sec.
John Reed Clubs 

progressive organizations in the USA. They arose in 1929 and were named in honor of the American revolutionary writer John Reed. By 1934 there were nearly 30 clubs that had their own printed organs and brought together almost 1,200 leftist writers and correspondents from among workers. They held two national conferences, in 1932 and 1934, and joined the International Association of Revolutionary Writers. Many of the John Reed clubs fused with the League of American Writers, created in 1935.
