  • Communist Editorial Cartoons in the 1920S and the Issue of Race
    Black and White and Red All Over: Communist Editorial Cartoons in the 1920s and the Issue of Race Alexander M. Dunphy Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts In the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2016 © 2016 Alexander M. Dunphy All rights reserved Abstract The U.S. Communist Party’s (CP) fight for racial justice is one of the most important and neglected chapters in the history of civil rights struggles in the United States. When it is studied the focus tends to be on the 1930s, however this conventional periodization ignores the dramatic growth in the Party’s understanding of race during the 1920s. A focus on this period forces a reexamination of the relationship between the CP and the Soviet–based Communist International (Comintern). Rather than dictated from Moscow, the CP’s understanding of the issues facing African Americans evolved through a dialogue between Communists of all races around the world. This challenges the assumptions of the “Cold War” historians, who paint the Party as puppets of Russia, as well as “revisionist” histories, which tend to ignore the Comintern by focusing on the Party’s grassroots. By neither denouncing nor ignoring the relationship between international and domestic Communists, I show how this exchange provided a catalyst to the CP’s changing position on race. This not only has implications for the historiography of the Communism, but also sheds light on current debates over the feasibility of the political left as a vehicle for addressing issues of race. In this thesis, I address this omission by analyzing previously unexamined editorial cartoons from Communist Party publications during the 1920s to highlight the CP’s changing views on race.

Entitled Imagine! Painters and Poets of the New York School, the exhibition is now open at E. S. Bird Library and will be available there until 15 December 2006. It will then travel to the Louise and Bernard Palitz Gallery at the Joseph I. Lubin House in New York City, with an opening reception there on 22 March 2007. Grace Hartigan (1922–) was a major participant in the explosion of creative energy that was the New York artis- tic and literary scene of the early 1950s. An important ab- stract expressionist painter, Hartigan was included in the famous show Twelve Americans at the Museum of Modern Art in 1956. Her friends and correspondents included Frank O’Hara, Larry Rivers, Barbara Guest, and Joan Mitchell. The exhibition will highlight Hartigan’s collaboration with poets, especially with Frank O’Hara and Barbara Guest. The Persian Jacket by Grace Hartigan. This silkscreen print on paper from 1953 is a variation on the artist’s oil painting of the same name that was purchased by the Museum of Modern Art.

Art Fronts: Visual Culture and Race Politics in the Mid-Twentieth-Century United States Abstract ART FRONTS: VISUAL CULTURE AND RACE POLITICS IN THE MID-TWENTIETH-CENTURY UNITED STATES Erin Park Cohn Supervisor: Kathy Peiss Art Fronts argues that visual culture played a central and understudied role in the African American freedom struggle in the middle part of the twentieth century. In particular, it traces the political lives and cultural productions of a generation of visual artists, both black and white, who seized on the Depression-era ethos of art as a weapon to forge a particular form of visual activism that agitated for social, political, and economic equality for African Americans. Participating in the proliferation of visual culture that characterized early twentieth-century America, the activist artists of this generation took advantage of opportunities to reproduce images widely and thus convey political messages in powerful and immediate ways.

  • Two Found Poems Offer Insights Into One of Canada’S Long-Forgotten Communist Labour Leaders Ron Verzuh
    NOTE AND DOCUMENT / NOTE ET DOCUMENT Proletarian Cromwell: Two Found Poems Offer Insights into One of Canada’s Long-Forgotten Communist Labour Leaders Ron Verzuh The saga of my life among the mass. To the whole working class it should belong, Immortalised in proletarian song. Harvey Murphy, the putative author of those boastful lines, once quipped that he was the “reddest rose in the garden of labour” and for some, though far from all, Canadian labour movement veterans of the 1930s and 1940s, this was an apt description of one of the most mercurial yet almost forgotten Communist labour leaders of the 20th century.1 Alas, Murphy was no poetaster.2 Instead, the authorship of the above lines, excerpted from one of two pseudo-biographical poems, belongs to Murphy’s elder contemporary, the lifelong left-wing firebrand “Red Malcolm” Bruce.3 Indeed, Bruce, a founding member of the Communist Party of Canada (cpc), penned some seemingly bitter criticisms of his youthful Red comrade. Then again, it could be argued that they were written in jest, that the poems were not so much an upbraiding as a jocular remembrance. As shall be shown, there is much in the poetry that could lead to such an interpretation, but evidence presented here also hints at some more serious personal and political motives for writing the verses. 1. Stephen L. Endicott, Raising the Workers’ Flag: The Workers’ Unity League of Canada, 1930–1936 (Toronto: University of Toronto Press, 2012), 126. 2. A poetaster is an amateur poet. 3. Ben Furey, Introduction, Protest Songs, http://protestsongs.ca/volume-1/tell-my-friend-the- prison-warden-i-hadnt-time-to-call/, refers to the nickname used in poet Dawn Fraser’s The Hair Breadth Escape of Red Malcolm Bruce.

  • John and Phyllis Collier Papers
    THE JOHN AND PHYLLIS COLLIER COLLECTION Papers, 1881-1975 (Predominately, 1887-1948) 14 ½ linear feet 1 oversize folder Accession Number 141 L.C. Number The papers of John and Phyllis Collier were deposited in the Archives of Labor and Urban Affairs in 1965, by Phyllis Feningston Collier. Additional papers and subsequent dates were later added by Phyllis Collier, and Comprise Part II of this collection. William Armistead Collier, Jr., a writer and poet, changed his name to John Armistead Collier. He was born in Memphis, Tennessee, January 25, 1874, and he died in Sierra Madre, California, September 29, 1947. A biographical sketch written by Phyllis Collier is appended, as well as a biographical sketch written by Collier himself in a letter to Henry W. Dana, February 26, 1926. John Collier was early attracted to the seminary, but in 1898 was committed to an asylum, by his father, after an alleged attempt on the life of his teacher, Dr. Hale. In 1908, his father again attempted to have him committed on the grounds of insanity, in part because of his ideas on property, anarchism and socialism. His education and employment were sporatic, and he worked and wrote under many pseudonyms; Nelson Collier, Armistead Nelson Collier, J. Kris Karpenter, and John Darmstadt. He was married three times; 1) 1909, to Lucille Pittman, by whom he had a son, John Thornton Collier, 2) 1911, to Kate Crawford, and 3) 1915, to Miriam Allen deFord. In 1921, without legal sanction, he formed a life-long bond with Phyllis Feningston. He also had a son, Francois Lafitte, by Francoise Lafitte in 1913.
