“Every artist, every scientist, every writer must decide now where he stands. The artist must take sides. He must elect to fight for freedom or for slavery. I have made my choice” Paul Robeson, 1937 America today stands at a crossroads between a new Cold War and a potential era of peace and win-win cooperation which can only be understood from the standpoint of the principled conflict
What an amazing article about how awesome Paul Robeson was. I knew about some of his life, but really appreciated learning more. as a child I heard that Robeson came to England to support the striking cotton workers . For supporting their struggle he was revered by my socialist Grandmother. Thank You
Thank you for enlightening us about Paul Robeson. I was unaware of much of what he had to endure and fought for. I think that Bob Marley, Curtis Mayfield, Marvin Gaye and a few others also fall into this category.
