1:00pm, Thursday February 11, 2010 Queen's University, 99 University Avenue, Kingston.	Public Forum: Clara Zetkin: Pioneer Feminist and Socialist With: John Riddell, Independent Researcher, Toronto Abstract: Clara Zetkin was a prominent leader of the international socialist movement from 1890 to her death in 1933. She is remembered today mainly for her pioneer work in building the socialist feminist movement. Less well known are her outspoken initiatives for unity of progressive movements, especially in opposing the rise of fascism. This seminar will seek to resituate her importance in the socialist and feminist tradition. About the Speaker: John Riddell is a Toronto-based independent researcher who has translated and edited six published volumes of documents on the history of the global workers movement between 1907 and 1921. A new two-volume annotated translation of the international workers' congress held in 1922 will be released by Brill Publishers in 2010 and subsequently by Haymarket Press. He is author of "Clara Zetkin and the Struggle for the United Front", to be published in International Socialist Journal in November. He has been active for several decades in progressive and solidarity movements. Studies in National and International Development

Saul draws on a series of his own occasional articles written over a span of forty years which, together with a linking narrative, serve to trace not only his own career as an anti-apartheid and liberation support movement activist in both Canada and southern Africa but also help recount the history of the various struggles in both venues in which he has been directly involved.
