GB 1556 WL 975 1989-1991 collection 1 folder Various

Julia Rahmer, a former member of the underground Leninist group Neu Beginnen, gives some insight into the activities of the group and the realities of life as a member. Julia Rahmer was recruited into the group in Berlin by a friend, Fritz Meyer, in April 1933. As a Jew, frustrated at no longer being able to continue her studies at university, she was attracted to the possibility of 'keeping socialist ideas alive' under the Nazi regime. By 1935 she had become disillusioned with the group and in 1936 emigrated to Prague and later London on account of the danger posed to members of subversive organisations.

May have been deposited by Julia Rahmer in 1991.

Papers of Julia Rahmer, 1989-1991, relate to activities of Neu Beginnen and the realities of life as a member and comprise copies of correspondence between Rahmer and various correspondents regarding documents related to Neu Beginnen, 1989-1991; a copy of Rahmer's account of life as a member of Neu Beginnen or ORG (as it was previously called) with an accompanying copy letter addressed to William Jones, 1991 and a copy of a list of members of Neu Beginnen.
