[American Left History publishes or re-publishes articles and
notices of events that might be of interest to the liberal, left-liberal and
radical public. That has been the policy generally since the publication due to
financial constraints went solely on-line in the early 2000s as the Internet
has allowed new and simply outlets for all kinds of material that were almost
impossible to publish when it was solely hard copy going back to the early
1970s.
Over the past couple of
months American Left History has
received many comments about our policy of publishing materials and notices of
events without comment. More than a few comments wondered aloud whether the
publication agreed with all, or most of what has been published. Obviously
given that we will republish material from sources like the ACLU, the movement
for nuclear disarmament and established if small left-wing organizations
formally outside the main party system in America unless we were mere
by-standers to the political movements many of the positions are too contrary to
agree with all of them.
Policy: unless there is
a signed statement of agreement by one of our writers, me or the Editorial
Board assume that the article or notice is what we think might be of interest
of the Left-wing public and does not constitute an endorsement. Greg Green,
