Scanned Collection of Marxist-Humanist Pamphlets

The HathiTrust Digital Library has made available full-text scans of sixteen pamphlets published by News & Letters between the years 1960 and 1984. Among them are several classics which have never received the audience they deserve, including Workers Battle Automation (1960) by Black autoworker Charles Denby and American Civilization on Trial (1963), published as an organizational statement, but written by Raya Dunayevskaya. Links are provided below.

  2. Hello and thanks for your post on these HathiTrust materials. We noticed you reported some missing pages in Two Articles on New Emerging Forces (1969), available at http://babel.hathitrust.org/cgi/pt?id=mdp.39015071598232. The first four pages of the text are now intact. The cover image is still missing, but we are in the process of fixing it and it will be there soon.

    Regards,
