TITLE: November 28, 1905. DESCRIPTION: Ženský list [Women's Paper] was a women's journal linked to Českoslovanská sociálně demokratická strana dělnická [the Czechoslavonic Social Democratic Workers’ Party]. Since 1901 it was edited by Karla Máchová (1853-1920) – the main representative of the Czech-speaking social democratic women's movement in Bohemia. The text describes the events of November 28, 1905 in Prague – the general strike and massive demonstrations for universal suffrage to the lower house of the Austrian (Cisleithanian) parliament (Reichsrat). The demonstrations were part of the actions organized in many cities of the monarchy by social democrats. The text is written from the working-class perspective. It describes November 28 as the “triumphant day of the disinherited proletariat asking its civil rights.” The author, most likely the editor of the journal, Karla Máchová, stresses that the proletariat is made up of both men and women and points to the fact, that large number of women were part of the procession, manifesting for universal suffrage in terms of suffrage for both men and women. She stresses that the right to vote will be universal only when it includes both men and women. KEYWORDS: Women and Institutions of Empire; Social Reform and Political Activism; Socialism; Political and Human Rights; Suffrage; Habsburg Empire; gender and class

In 1971, Ofelia Domínguez Navarro wrote _50 años de una vida_, a memoir of her life. It includes most of _De 6 a 6_, but it also stands alone as a memoir and a testimony of Cuban life and society throughout her lifetime. As Cuba was a leader in testimonial writing, Ofelia’s contribution fit in with the methods of historical and literary inquiry. Ofelia Domínguez Navarro (1896-1977) belonged to the feminist, nationalist, and communist revolutionary groups in Cuba between 1920 and 1977. She wrote a memoir of her four imprisonments during the dictatorships of President Gerardo Machado and President Carlos Mendieta. She was a teacher, lawyer, firebrand, journalist, and activist for women and the working class. She was also one of the initial members of the Cuban Communist Party and a close friend of Julio Antonio Mella, its founder. She founded her own women’s and worker’s rights parties: the Unión Laborista de Mujeres and the Unión Radical de Mujeres in 1930 and 1931, respectively. She participated in the three national congresses on women’s rights, 1923, 1925, and 1939. She served on Dictator and President Fulgencio Batista’s delegation to the United Nations, ultimately leading it in 1957 and 1958.

TITLE: Two Heroes, Part II. DESCRIPTION: After 1930, the content of the journal Yangi Yo'l [New Path], like that of most publications in the Soviet Union, became heavily ideological and oriented almost exclusively toward supporting the foremost issue in the Communist Party's agenda. Contributors to Yangi Yo'l came to include more men, and the work that they published was far less feminist than the content published in the 1920s. Of note, the digital archive includes full issues of Yangi Yo'l from 1925-1929. This poem is one of several examples of Yangi Yo'l poems published between 1930 and 1933. The themes in these poems were similar to many found in earlier issues: poets decry the former "slavery" of women and celebrate their liberation in Communist Uzbekistan; they denounce the veil (paranji) and cheer women who work in factories and on kolkhozes (collective farms); they hail women as heroines who defy oppressors. However, these poets exemplified new Soviet literary values of the 1930s, depicting work itself and labor production as central to life. Each poem was selected by scholar Claire Roosien. Each Uzbek-language original is accompanied by Roosien’s commentary, transcription in the Latin alphabet, and a beautiful, literary translation.
