Available until November 30th, for on-campus IP only (off-campus users please log in to VPN first).
Included titles: The Daily Worker (1924–1958), Daily World (1968–1986), The Ohio Socialist (1917–1919), People’s Daily World (1986–1990), People’s Weekly World (1990–2013), Sunday Worker (1936–1958), The Toiler (1919–1922), The Worker (1922–1924), and The Worker (1958–1963). These newspapers reflect Marxist thought, promoting communist and socialist ideas across different periods and supporting the working class and social movements. They enjoyed broad support from the Communist Party USA (CPUSA) and served not only as channels for party members to transmit messages and exchange information/intelligence, but—during the 1950s and 1960s—were also widely read by CIA agents and individuals with ties to the CIA.
