Emma Goldman (Bristol, England) to Tom [Keell] (n.p.)
Description:
Goldman writes that there is evidence that the Russians are "trying to break up the last oasis of the anarchists," the Kropotkin Museum. She cautions against publishing the news in Freedom, until there is confirmation. She points out that the Russians have already had success in separating the ranks of anarchist refugees. She then reports low attendance for her drama lectures. She has "lost hope" and feels depressed. In contrast, her recent political meetings have been packed, with responsive and attentive listeners, and she has an additional lecture upcoming. She goes on to outline what literature is selling at her meetings. She worries about plans for a lecture at Keat's house, then offers Keell a complimentary ticket to a lecture. She hopes to soon have money to pay her debts.
Collection contains letters primarily written by Emma Goldman, an anarchist known for political activism, writing and speeches, as well as photographs and papers.
