Ebook: Red Travellers: Jeanne Corbin & Her Comrades

Jeanne Corbin typifies the female militants of the first generation of Canadian Communists. Andrée Lévesque's powerful account of the experiences of Corbin and her female comrades reveals the essential role women played in the movement. Lévesque also shows that, despite some efforts to construct egalitarian gender relations, these women subordinated gender issues to the class struggle.
