Young Socialists in the SPD

At the Reichsjugendtag (Reich Youth Day) of the Majority Social Democratic Party of Germany for young workers in Weimar in 1920, in which around 1,000 young people took part, the focus was on dealing with nature, art and culture and less on political issues.

Overall, the Workers' Youth Day took a positive stance on the policies of the mother party M-SPD.

[4] The Jusos were founded between 1918 and 1920, when groups of members of the SPD between 20 and 25 years of age began to meet.

The congress began with the scandal that the delegates booed the SPD national director Hans-Jürgen Wischnewski, who had come as a guest, and described him as incompetent and his planned presentation was voted off the agenda.

Chairman of Jusos Peter Corterier's statement of accounts was also voted off the agenda, and he then offered his immediate resignation, which the Congress declined.
