}}Fannie Jacobs (November 1, 1885—July 6, 1977, also known as Cele Berney), was a Socialist and Communist Labor Party women's rights activist who ran in both 1918 and 1919 for the New York State House of Representatives or Assembly, and was an immigrant from Russia, immigrating from Russia to Brooklyn, New York, when she was four or five years old sometime in 1891.[1]

Early life

Fannie Jacobs was born on November 1, 1885 somewhere in Russia. She spoke Yiddish.[1] Fannie was a nickname and Jacobs was her married name.

Immigration to America

Sometime in 1891, when she was four or five years old, she immigrated to Brooklyn, New York, from Russia.

1918 and 1919 Run for New York State House of Representatives or Assembly

In 1918, two years before women got the right to vote, Fannie ran as the Socialist candidate for the New York State House of Representatives or Assembly. She gave the speech "Women-Past, Present, and Future" to a large crowd of people, so big that some had to stand in the aisles.[2]

In 1919, she ran again, but in the Communist Labor Party. When they first counted the results, she was the winner.[3] But during the recount, she lost.[4]

On December 9, 1919, at a Communist Labor Party in Brooklyn, New York, she gave a speech where she advocated for the rights of the working class and denounced capitalists' interventions against political organizing among workers, saying that "if ever you try to change the conditions under which you live, so that it is in the interest of the working class, you will find that [American capitalist] dictatorship more brutal than that of Czarist Russia".[5]

Later life and death

In later life, Fannie called herself Cele Berney. Not yet 92, she died on July 6, 1977 in Miami, Florida.[6]

Personal life

In 1902, she married Ralph M. Jacobs. They had three children:

  • Arthur S. Jacobs (b. 1903)
  • Lillian Jacobs (b. 1906), who married a Mr. Levitch
  • Theodore Jacobs (b. 1911)
