Revolutionary Communist Youth League (Bolshevik) - The Struggle For The Right To Education

The Struggle For The Right To Education

The RCYL(b) differentiates between the rich students, who are happy with capitalism and the poor students, whose interests are often similar to those of the working class.

The RCYL(b) runs the campaign to stop religious propaganda in schools and State-owned establishments.

In the city of Gorkii (a.k.a. Nizhnii Novgorod) the RCYL(b) has successfully set up a student union.

In the city of Orel, the RCYL(b) has held a manifestation called "Education for the rich" in the Autumn of 2005, in protest against the moves by Russia's government to put an end to free education.

Famous quotes containing the words struggle and/or education:

    The conflict between the need to belong to a group and the need to be seen as unique and individual is the dominant struggle of adolescence.
    Jeanne Elium (20th century)

    The Cairo conference ... is about a complicated web of education and employment, consumption and poverty, development and health care. It is also about whether governments will follow where women have so clearly led them, toward safe, simple and reliable choices in family planning. While Cairo crackles with conflict, in the homes of the world the orthodoxies have been duly heard, and roundly ignored.
    Anna Quindlen (b. 1952)
