Abraham Licoln Brigade Archives

FALL NEWSLETTER 2011
Dear ALBA community,.
October 2011 marks the 75th anniversary of the founding of the International Brigades. To properly honor the brave men and women who fought to save the Spanish Republic, programs of appreciation and remembrance will take place around the world.
Please join us this fall!
ALBA’s mission is to keep alive the legacy of the veterans of the Lincoln Brigade — its commitment to internationalism and social justice.
We are accomplishing this together. THANK YOU for your support.
¡No pasarán!
