The Jewish People's League in Mexico ((イディッシュ語:אידישע פאָלקס ליגע אין מעקסיקא), ''Idishe Folks-Ligue in Meksike'', popularly known as ''Folks-Ligue'', (スペイン語:Liga Popular Israelita de México)) was a communist Jewish organization in Mexico.〔Cimet de Singer, Adina. ''(Ashkenazi Jews in Mexico: Ideologies in the Structuring of a Community )''. Albany, NY: State Univ. of New York Pr, 1997. p. 99〕 The organization was founded by members of Gezbir in 1942, in response to the German invasion of the Soviet Union.〔〔Cimet-Singer, Adina. ''(The Last Battles of Old-World Ideologies in the Race for Identity and Communal Power: Communists vs. Bundists vs. Zionists in Mexico, 1938-1951 )''〕 Initially the name of the organization was Jewish League to Help the Soviet Union ((イディッシュ語:אידישע ליגע פארן סאוועטן פארבאנד), ''Idishe Ligue farn Sovetn Farband'', (スペイン語:Liga Israelita pro Ayuda a la Unión Soviética), abbreviated LIPAUS).〔Backal, Alicia G. de. ''(Generaciones judías en México: la Kehilá Ashkenazi, 1922-1992 )''. México, D.F.: Comunidad Ashkenazí de México, 1993. pp. 29, 69, 137〕〔Cañadas García, Teresa. ''(LA HUELLA DE LA CULTURA EN LENGUA ALEMANA EN MÉXICO A PARTIR DEL EXILIO DE 1939-1945 )''〕 It was commonly known as ''Di Ligue'' in the Jewish community.〔〔Gurvich Peretzman, Natalia. ''(La memoria rescatada: la izquierda judía en México: Fraiwelt y La Liga Popular Israelita 1942 - 1946 )''. México: Univ. Iberoamericana, 2004. pp. 42, 49〕 The organization had good relationship with the Jewish Central Committee of Mexico, as several members of ''Di Ligue'' were also part of the Central Committee.〔Goldsmith, Shulamit, and Natalia Gurvich Peretzman. ''(Sobre el judaísmo mexicano: diversas expresiones de activismo comunitario )''. México, D.F.: UIA, Departamento de Historia, Programa de Cultura Judaica, 2009. p. 246〕 ''Di Ligue'' organized bazaars for fundraising to support Soviet orphans and families affected by the war.〔 ''Di Ligue'' published the newspaper ''Fraivelt'' ('Free World').〔UNESCO. ''(MEMORY OF THE WORLD REGISTER - Collection of the Center of Documentation and Investigation of the Ashkenazi Community in Mexico (16th to 20th Century) (Mexico) )''〕 In January 1945 the name was changed to ''Idishe Folks-Ligue'', a move that indicated the organization would be open to Jews of different political tendencies.〔〔 At the time the communists sought to broaden their base in the struggle against fascism. Mordkhe Korona, a Zionist, was the chairman of the organization during this period.〔 The ''Fraivelt'' editor Boris Rosen represented ''Folks-Ligue'' in the Jewish Central Committee.〔 Representatives of the Jewish Central Committee, World Jewish Congress, Nidkhei Israel Congregation, the United Zionist Organization and Histadrut participated in the inaugural ceremony of ''Folks-Ligue'' at its new office on Paseo de la Reforma 503 on January 21, 1945.〔 The Soviet ambassador Konstantin Umansky held a speech at the meeting (his last public speech before his death).〔 Portraits of Winston Churchill, Franklin D. Roosevelt, Joseph Stalin and Mexican president Manuel Ávila Camacho decorated the meeting hall. During this period three flags were displayed at ''Folks-Ligue'' meetings; the Mexican, Soviet and Zionist, and the Hatikva was played alongside Mexican and Soviet national anthems at ceremonies of the movement.〔 Artist Fanny Rabel had her first exhibition at the ''Folks-Ligue'' office in 1945. Frida Kahlo wrote the presentation for the exhibition of twenty four oils, thirteen drawings and eight engravings. After the end of the Second World War, the influence of ''Folks-Ligue'' declined sharply as European Jewish refugees began leaving Mexico.〔 The organization pulled out of the Jewish Central Committee, in response to Zionist hegemony in that body.〔 As of the 1950s the office of ''Folks-Ligue'' was located at Pino Suarez, 27.〔Federbusch, Simon.
