DESCRIPTION:July 19 is the 60th anniversary of the revolt at Russia's infamous Vorkuta 
 slave labor camp, 100 miles above the arctic circle. The mass strike was 
 inspired by the June 17, 1953 East German uprising. It spread among the 
 over 50,000 internees including children of old Bolsheviks murdered in 
 Stalin's purges. These revolts shook the post-WWII world's assumption that 
 under totalitarian control and mass "brainwashing" no revolt was possible. 
 When reports of the revolt got out they were met in the west with profound 
 skepticism. (see "Russia is more than ever full of revolutionaries..." at 
 www.newsandletters.org) \n\nThis Sunday, July 21, Urszula Wislanka will 
 discuss this revolt and its impact on the birth and development of 
 Marxist-Humanism. \n\n
