Dos Abend Blatt (The Evening Paper; original extensive title Yiddish: אבענד בלאטט פון דיא ארבייטער צייטונג; Abend blatt fun di arbayter tsaytung) was a Yiddish language daily newspaper published in New York City, United States.Dos Abend Blatt was launched as an outgrowth of the weekly Di Arbeter Tsaytung (Workman's Paper). Published between 1894 and 1902, it was an organ of the Socialist Labor Party of America (SLP).
Dos Abend Blatt was the first socialist Yiddish daily to appear in New York. During its early phase, Dos Abend Blatt rivaled the readership of the anarchist Freie Arbeiter Stimme and, later, the bourgeois-orthodox Yiddisher Tagesblatt. The newspaper was sponsored by the United Hebrew Trades.
Politically, Dos Abend Blatt argued in favour of an internationalist line, denouncing national chauvinism, labor nationalism and Zionism. It called on Jewish workers to unite along class lines, rather than building an identity around their language and/or religion (Yiddishkeit). Regarding antisemitism, Dos Abend Blatt argued that the problem had economic roots and thus Jewish nationalism was not an adequate answer. However, the news section of the paper carried frequent reports on antisemitism and pogroms around the world.
