Moshe Decter. in The Profile of Com­ munism. admits, “The Communists endeavor to capture men’s minds through the cultural offensive.”1 J. Edgar Hoover, director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation, stated that the Communists “have infiltrated every con­ ceivable sphere of activity; youth groups, radio, television, and motion picture industries; church, school, educational and cultural groups; the press: nationality minority groups and civil and political units.”2 In the musical arena the marginal neuter might well congratulate the revolutionary socialists for their successful use of music;3 for inflicting upon the American public a program announced beforehand and persistently pursued until near perfection and completion. The Communist in­ filtration into the subversion of American music has been nothing short of phenomenal and in some areas, e.g.. folk music, their control is fast approaching the saturation point under the able leadership of Pete Seecer. As many have had a vital part in this study of the Communist use of music, a word of appreciation is in 1. Moshe Doctor, The Profile of Commnnism, Crowell-Collier Publishing Company. New York. 1961. p. 100. 2. Appropriation testimony of John Edgar Hoover, director. Federal Bureau of Investigation, before the House Subcom­ mittee on Appropriations on March 6, 1961. p. 49. 3. We have never contended that any particular type of music has been ‘ invented'’ by the Communists. Only that certain types have been “used’’ by the Reds. Life Magazine (May 21. 1265. p, 92) was seeking to disprove the former, which we have never held. It has not disproved the latter, which we. in fact, hold. 9 * order for those who faithfully shared the burdens of the project. Mr. J. D. Riggins must receive special mention since it was this gentleman who providentially encountered the Communists’ use of music for children. When his own son continued to come home from school sleepy (as if drugged) the parents became highly concerned. Mr. Rig­ gins, a student of hypnosis, eventually recognized the symptoms as threshold hypnosis. His boy had gradually manifested

  • Landscaping Hispaniola Moreau De Saint-Méry's
    New West Indian Guide Vol. 85, no. 3-4 (2011), pp. 169-190 URL: http://www.kitlv-journals.nl/index.php/nwig/index URN:NBN:NL:UI:10-1-101703 Copyright: content is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 3.0 License ISSN: 0028-9930 MARIA CRISTINA FUMAGALLI LANDSCAPING HISPANIOLA MOREAU DE SAINT-MÉRY’S BORDER POLITICS A few days after the Haitian earthquake of January 12, 2010, Sonia Marmolejos, a young Dominican woman who was in the Darío Contreras Hospital of Santo Domingo with her newborn daughter, decided to breastfeed three Haitian children who had been admitted there after the disaster. They were wounded, hungry, and dehydrated, so Sonia Marmolejos acted on impulse and she did not expect to receive any special recognition for her generous gesture. The government of the Dominican Republic capitalized on this story, defined Sonia Marmolejos as a heroine, and used her actions as a metaphor to illustrate the charitable response of the country toward neighboring Haiti. Haiti and the Dominican Republic share the island of Hispaniola and a history of colonialism which, however, has conjugated itself in very differ- ent ways. Officially under Spanish rule since 1493, the island was mostly left unpopulated for three-quarters of a century. In 1625 the French started to occupy parts of it (mainly in the north) and until the official recognition of the French colony of Saint-Domingue in 1777, they constantly pushed for- ward their unofficial borders, while the Spanish carried out punitive raids to eradicate the French presence. On the Spanish side, the economy was mainly livestock-based but the French developed an impressive network of planta- tions which relied on the constant import of enslaved labor from Africa.

It might apply to the weight of your take on the blues, as with Fleetwood Mac or Led Zeppelin. It might mean the originality of Jethro Tull or King Crimson. It might equally apply to an individual- to Eric Clapton, for example, The Beatles are the saints of the 1960s, and George Harrison an especially "heavy person". This year, heavy people flock together. Clapton and Steve Winwood join up in Blind Faith. Steve Marriott and Pete Frampton meet in Humble Pie. Crosby, Stills and Nash admit a new member, Neil Young. Supergroups, or more informal supersessions, serve as musical summit meetings for those who are reluctant to have theirwork tied down by the now antiquated notion of the "group". Trouble of one kind or another this year awaits the leading examples of this classic formation. Our cover stars The Rolling Stones this year part company with founder member Brian Jones. The Beatles, too, are changing - how, John Lennon wonders, can the group hope to contain three contributing writers? The Beatles diversification has become problematic.

  • Charles Ensley Scholarship Fund Dinner Charles Ensley Earned His Right to Be a Part of the Labor Relations History of Our Country
    January 23, 2014 Robert Croghan Charles Ensley Scholarship Fund Dinner Charles Ensley earned his right to be a part of the labor relations history of our country. That story goes back to before Charles was born. In 1912, the Lloyd-La Follette Act allowed government workers to belong to a union. By 1917, the American Federation of Labor (AFL) had chartered a national government workers union for federal employees, and, in 1936, the AFL chartered the American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees. By 1937, the left wing of AFSCME, led by public sector Caseworker unions, broke off from AFSCME and joined the Congress of Industrial Organizations. After a number of splits and mergers, in 1946, the United Public Workers of America became the dominant union for NYC Caseworkers and Public Hospital Workers. It was also the largest public employee union in the country. That was the high point. Thereafter, between 1946 and 1953, Congress and the nation at large became consumed by the red scare. The United Public Workers of America was a casualty of that period of anti-communist hysteria. It was sad because the UPWA was a militant union that had taken strong stands against racism and disparities in pay based on the sex of the employee, and was in favor of public service workers in general. The first African American woman to lead a union in New York was Eleanor Godling of the UPWA. She also served on the National Board of the CIO. The last President of the UPWA, Abram Flaxer, was sent to jail in 1953.

    THE LIBRARY OF CONGRESS RARE BOOK AND SPECIAL COLLECTIONS DIVISION THE RADICAL PAMPHLET COLLECTION Finding aid prepared by David Kennaly Washington, D.C. - Library of Congress - 1995 LIBRARY OF CONGRESS RARE BOOK ANtI SPECIAL COLLECTIONS DIVISIONS RADICAL PAMPHLET COLLECTIONS The Radical Pamphlet Collection was acquired by the Library of Congress through purchase and exchange between 1977—81. Linear feet of shelf space occupied: 25 Number of items: Approx: 3465 Scope and Contents Note The Radical Pamphlet Collection spans the years 1870-1980 but is especially rich in the 1930-49 period. The collection includes pamphlets, newspapers, periodicals, broadsides, posters, cartoons, sheet music, and prints relating primarily to American communism, socialism, and anarchism. The largest part deals with the operations of the Communist Party, USA (CPUSA), its members, and various “front” organizations. Pamphlets chronicle the early development of the Party; the factional disputes of the 1920s between the Fosterites and the Lovestoneites; the Stalinization of the Party; the Popular Front; the united front against fascism; and the government investigation of the Communist Party in the post-World War Two period. Many of the pamphlets relate to the unsuccessful presidential campaigns of CP leaders Earl Browder and William Z. Foster. Earl Browder, party leader be—tween 1929—46, ran for President in 1936, 1940 and 1944; William Z. Foster, party leader between 1923—29, ran for President in 1928 and 1932. Pamphlets written by Browder and Foster in the l930s exemplify the Party’s desire to recruit the unemployed during the Great Depression by emphasizing social welfare programs and an isolationist foreign policy.
