ARCHIVE - THE VOLUNTEER Few things can improve the pleasure of longer days and warm weather the way a good book does. Whether soaking up the sun or chilling in the A/C, pick up one, or all five, of these non-fiction works that center on or have a connection to the Spanish Civil War. RACIAL JUSTICE, THEN AND NOW: PAUL ROBESON’S ANTIFASCIST The singer consistently spoke against segregation and racial violence in the U.S. as well as colonialism in Africa.

The cost was £8 for a nine-day tour, including three meals a day, accommodation in first-class hotels and incidental expenses. THE PAINFUL PAST OF SPANISH CIVIL WAR REFUGEES IN FRANCE In a matter of weeks, around 475,000 refugees had crossed the French-Spanish border. The exodus came to be known later as La Retirada (The Retreat).To mark its 80th anniversary, FRANCE 24 spoke to Geneviève Dreyfus-Armand, historian and author of “The Exile of Spanish Republicans in France: From the Civil War to Franco’s Death”, who explained this forgotten chapter in history.
