Mary E. Marcy (1877-1922) was, far and away, the person most responsible for bringing the economic ideas of Marx and Marxism to U.S. workers. A working-class woman from southern Illinois who helped define pre-War U.S. Marxism, the Left-Wing of the Socialist Party and the philosophy of Industrial Unionism as an editor, writer, activist, and intellectual. A remarkable comrade who is deserving of much wider recognition, of study, and of respect. Matt Siegfried of Revolution’s Newsstand will host a presentation of her life and writings on Thursday, February 6, 2025 at 8pm EST with time for comments and questions. The talk will be recorded.
