Produktbeschreibung
Riding with the Revolution tells the gripping story of American radicals and revolutionaries who stood in solidarity with the Mexican Revolution. A towering work of historical scholarship, this book is both a re-assessment of the Mexican Revolution and an ode to international solidarity. Between 1900 to 1925 many American leftists—including anarchists, socialists and communists—expressed their solidarity with the Mexican Revolution. Indeed, John Reed actually saddled up and rode with Pancho Villa. Later, American war resisters crossed the Rio Grande into Mexico where they helped found the Communist Party, the Industrial Workers of the World, and a Feminist Council. Protestant ministers, the Socialist Eugene Debs, Samuel Gompers head of the AFL, the anarchist Emma Goldman, and Communists John Reed, Louis Fraina, Bertram Wolfe, as well as foreign politicos M.N. Roy, Sen Katayama, and Alexander Borodin all took an interest in the Mexican labor movement.
