| Description: |
These 70 interviews document the role of left-wing radicalism in shaping Minnesota's political culture. Radicals who were active in the decades up to 1960 were interviewed, including men and women, members of various left-wing political parties and unaffiliated activists, artists, organizers and WPA workers. 37 interviews were generated between 1986 and 1989 as part of the Radicalism Project at the Minnesota Historical Society, under project director Carl Ross. 33 interviews were transcribed from previously collected interviews by Sal Salerno, Steven Trimble, Thomas O'Connell, Hyman Berman and others and added to the project. |
