About this listen
Here is the story of one Black American communist who became disillusioned with communism and penned this cautionary tale of the perils of his experience.
According to the author: "Ten years I labored in the cause of Communism. I was a dedicated 'comrade.' All my talents and efforts were zealously used to bring about the triumph of Communism in America and throughout the world. To me, the end of capitalism would mark the beginning of an interminable period of plenty, peace, prosperity and universal comradeship. All racial and class differences and conflicts would end forever after the liquidation of the capitalists, their government and their supporters.... Little did I realize until I was deeply enmeshed in the Red Conspiracy, that just and seeming grievances are exploited to transform idealism into a cold and ruthless weapon against the capitalist system - that this is the end toward which all the communist efforts among Negroes are directed. Indeed, I had entered the red conspiracy in the vain belief that it was the way to a "new, better and superior" world system of society. Ten years later, thoroughly disillusioned, I abandoned communism."
From the preface.

Interesting
Interesting to see how a people can be manipulated all the time. Something that continually happens no matter how many people have spoken out

history
This should be wide spread knowledge, and this book should be in every school.
New generations are clueless about 20th century history, primarely because of all these radical lefties and communists that have infiltrated our education system and high powers of government, not only in the United States, but all around the globe.
