This class covers the 1950's framing and execution of comrades Julius and Ethel Rosenberg, by the US government and the history of the campaign that is still continuing to reopen the case and bring justice for them. This comes at a time of heightened repression of communists and anti-imperialists as another Cold War looms. Every year we pay tribute to the Rosenbergs. So join us and learn their story.
