‘Militant’ announces staff changes
 
BY MARTÍN KOPPEL  
Cindy Jaquith, who has been the managing editor of the Militant, is now the editor. Jaquith, who served on the Militant staff from 1971 to 1991, was editor from 1979 to 1985. She was the chief of the paper’s Managua Bureau in Nicaragua from 1985 to 1987, providing firsthand reports on the revolution in that country. Before her current stint on the paper, she was active in building the socialist movement in Pittsburgh, where she worked as a sewing machine operator.

Joining the staff is Seth Galinsky, who has been a contributor to the paper while working on the kill floor at Tyson Foods in Perry, Iowa. Galinsky, 51, was a correspondent in Managua from 1988 to 1990, and served on the Militant staff in New York from 1990 to 1992.

Ben Joyce, who had been attending college in New York and joined the staff in June as a summer volunteer, will not be returning to school in the fall. He is now a full-time volunteer on the staff. Joyce, 22, is a member of the Young Socialists National Steering Committee. He is the Socialist Workers Party candidate for U.S. Congress in New York’s 7th District.
