New York Marxist School

Hide Profile

In 1975, a group of civil rights, community, labor, and student activists came together to found the New York Marxist School, now a part of the larger Brecht Forum,a left political, culutral and educational center in New York City. A leading role was played by Arthur Felberbaum (1935-1979), earlier a Trotskyist activist. The NYMS sought to promote the study and renewal of Marxist ideas and their application to contemporary issues.
