and the
INSURGENT
WORKER
Welcome to the Sojourner Truth Organization Digital
Archive.
S0Journer Truth Organization, according to
historian Michael Staudenmaier, was an American
"revolutionary group based largely in Chicago during
the 1970's and 1980's. STO, as It is commonly
known, created a small but vibrant political tendency
around the concepts of challenging dual
consciousness, opposing white supremacy,
supporting extra-union organizing in factory settings,
defending anti-imperialist and national liberation
struggles, and building an internal culture of
intellectual rigor and sophistication." [S TO: Notes
Toward a Historyl
This archive, which We have been adding to for over
three years, will serve as a resouæe for STO's
newspapers (Insurgent Worker), pamphlets, shop
leaflets, theoretical journal (Urgent Tasks),
collaborative works (Collective Works, Tendency
Newsletter), and others.
We will be making their works available iri both PDF
URGEN
All of our RDFs have been scanned using Optical
Character Recognition (OCR) technology with the
intent of digitally restoring them as well as to make
them easier to reference and copy to any word
processing program.
The only exceptions to this rule are the Insurgent
Worker series and the shop leaflets included with the
Workplace Papers collection. These were assembled
by hand and makes OCR difficult and unnecessary.
Thus they will be rendered in JPEG format.
We add materials as they are made available to us
in no systematic fashion, so if would like to
see anything in particular or has any constructive
criticism, corrections, or suggestions, please contact
us at infoasoiournertruth.net. If are looking for
literature on a particular subject, use the Google
search feature below.
For those of you Who have original prints of any STO
material that you would like to donate either to the
digital or physical archive, please let us know.
