120 - A.K. 47 - "Alexandra Kollontay: The World's One Woman Ambassador" Part 1

A.K. 47 - Selections from the Works of Alexandra Kollontai

Kristen Ghodsee reads the first half of a biographical article written by the American Katharine Anthony and published in The North American Review in September 1930. At this point in time, Kollontai was serving as the Soviet ambassador to Norway, and Katharine Anthony was introducing Kollontai to an American audience as a feminist and women's rights activist, and playing down her connections to the Bolsheviks.
