The Radical Literature Collection lends itself to many avenues of research. To illustrate a few ways the collection can be used, here are three sample projects created by UMBC undergraduate students as part of the 2021 Interdisciplinary CoLab:
A summation of and highlighting of selections from the collection that demonstrate a rhetorical shift from the rest of the pieces in order to demonstrate the political diversity of the collection and its usefulness in providing a political "snapshot" of the time.
"Radicalism and Intersectionality" focuses on the various intersectionalities that are discussed throughout the collection and shape radicalism as a whole. The video highlights the diversity of the Radical Literature Collection and features a preview of the collection.
This rhetorical analysis explores and compares the role of anger in Vladimir Lenin’s "A Letter to American Workingmen" and William Z. Foster’s "N.Y. Herald Tribune’s 23 Questions about the Communist Party."
