Stories of Postwar communists: Series 2, Episode 5
Sep 18, 2023
Luke Whitington

In this fifth Episode of Series 2 of the Postwar Communists podcasts,  8 of the 23  interviewees talk about their decision to join to the CPA. The other voices will be heard in subsequent episodes.
 
Thanks to our interviewees, currently younger-than-old-but-older-than-young (aka baby boomers).   
 
This series can be seen as a complement to the other material produced for the centenary year of the CPA. In SEARCH's book Comrades! Lives of Australian Communists (SEARCH, 2020) we published biographies of 50 women and 50 men, some famous and some not, who had been part of the CPA. SEARCH also produced a one-day series of six one-hour online forums to commemorate the Centenary of the founding of the Communist Party of Australia in October 1920, co-hosted by the State Library of NSW which you can view on the SEARCH YouTube Channel.
