Hide Profile

Hashomer Hatzair, initially founded in 1913 in Austria, is the oldest Zionist youth movement still in existence. Marxist-Zionist in its early history, the organization was inspired by the works and ideas of Baden-Powell and Ber Borohchov. After World War I, the movement spread to many nations as a scouting movement. The San Francisco chapter was organized in 1938 and remained in existence for ten years.
