  • The Vale of Cashmere — Brooklyn's Secret Meeting Ground
    October 15, 2015 The Vale of Cashmere — Brooklyn’s secret meeting ground Photograph by Thomas Roma courtesy Steven Kasher Gallery, NY View gallery3 photos "In the Vale of Cashmere", Thomas Roma's most recent project, consists of an intricate sequence of 75 black and white portraits and landscapes photographed in a secluded section of Prospect Park, a meeting place where black, Latino and other gay and bisexual men have long sought one another out to fulfill their wish for community and to satisfy sexual desire. With his large, tripod-mounted, hand-made camera, Roma stepped into the center of this community, an obvious but mostly ignored presence. Understandably, many of the men Roma approached to photograph in a formal portrait were not interested, but surprisingly, many were. After they agreed to be photographed, Roma would offer the men time and the opportunity to show him something of themselves they might not have the chance to otherwise. Although originally conceived solely as a portrait project, the more time Roma spent in the Vale of Cashmere, the more the physical beauty of the Vale became inseparable from the portraits, and many of the landscape photographs were integrated into the series. In addition to the inclusion of landscapes, a custom miniature camera was utilized to provide sequential pictures depicting the steady march of the mostly solitary, unidentifiable men as they cruised the pathways of the Vale. Roma’s motivation for doing the project came from his wish to honor the memory of a close friend who died of AIDS in 1991, and who had introduced him to the Vale of Cashmere.

  • Anticommunist Hysteria the Cold War, 2000 from U.S
    Anticommunist Hysteria The Cold War, 2000 From U.S. History in Context SOVIET ESPIONAGE During the Cold War, adversarial states employed a variety of means to further their quest for national security and to gain advantage over rival nations. Among these means were spying and intelligence gathering. Well before the onset of the Cold War, the Soviet Union developed a sophisticated and determined campaign of spying and infiltration against the Western powers, particularly Great Britain and the United States. Taking advantage of the openness of the Western democracies, as well as the communist adherence or sympathies of some key British and American citizens, the Soviet Union gleaned crucial information on political and technological developments. When revelations of Soviet spying became public in the West, a wave of anticommunist hysteria set in during the first decade of the Cold War. Already angered by the Soviet occupation of Eastern Europe, and stunned by the "fall" of China to communism, millions of Americans now came to believe not only that Soviet-led communism menaced world order, but that it threatened the security of the United States itself. Americans overreacted, conducting a reckless purge of government, businesses, universities, and other arenas of both private and public life in a prolonged campaign against alleged domestic subversion. The campaign uncovered some genuine spies, but it also destroyed the lives of many more innocent individuals, gave rise to many demagogues in national politics, and turned the nation sharply to the right, thereby narrowing the boundaries of political debate in the United States. On the whole, it constituted the single greatest assault on civil liberties in U.S.
