nov 2, 1927 - Independent Communist Party

Description:

"Man's sorrow often will not let me sleep."
—Henriëtte Roland Holst

"By November 1927, the tenth anniversary of the Bolshevik revolution, she resigned from the Dutch Communist Party, abandoning the Soviet Russian model of revolutionary social transformation and the emerging evils of Stalinism. Sympathizing with the breakaway position of Leon Trotsky, she made clear that her commitment to social justice remained undimmed, and that year she founded a splinter group, the Independent Communist Party."
