Bias from November 26 to 30, 1969, At this conference it was decided to form a new organization to be known as Revolutionary Youth Movement (RYM), characterized as a mass anti~imperialist youth organization, said organization being proposed as separate and distinct in form and content from SDS. The - "principles of Unity" adopted by the conference included a struggle against white suprenacy and male supremacy; fights against imperialism, anticommunism, fascism and oppression of youth; and support of the right of self-determination of all “oppressed nations," also support of the right of all "oppressed and exploited" peoples “to armed self-defense." _It was agreed that RYM would not be a Marxist-Leninist organization; hovever, souree eaid this was decided in order to indicate an organization broad enough in form to be acceptable to everyone. A temporary National Steering Committee (NSC) made up of eight females and two males was elected to govern RYM until national officers could be elected during the Spring of 1970. RYM publications have listed the RYH National Office (0) at Post Office Box 5421 and Post Office Box 77012 C, - both Atlanta, Georgia, and a second source has advised that the NO has no office space but would probably be considered as - located at Apartment 27, 1067 Alta Avenue, Northeast, Atlanta. , ti(‘i‘i;i«rr women dominated the founding conference and have continued to dominate NSC meetings to the point that “women's liberation” has apparently become the RYM's principal issue - also that RYM's poor financial condition has resulted in its fzilure to publish & paper. During early 1970, RYM has decided to cater to the working class rather than youth, since the potential for. . social revolution lies in workers. oe APPENDIX ae em ee tt me ae
