Abstract

The article explores the role of The Maritime Labor Herald (1921-1926) in the development of socialist feminism in Canada, focusing on its "Women's Column" as a significant but overlooked part of this history. It examines how the Herald, published in Glace Bay, Nova Scotia, provided a platform for socialist and feminist writers. It highlights the contributions of women like Rose Henderson, Lucy Woodsworth, and Becky Buhay, who used the column to address women's roles in industrial capitalism.
