Color, Communism And Common Sense

Contact Your Elected Officials

Ten years I labored in the cause of Communism. I was a dedicated โ€œcomrade.โ€ 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. A world union of Soviet States under the hegemony of Russia would free and lead mankind on to Utopia.

Being an idealist, I was sold this โ€œbill of goodsโ€ by a Negro graduate of the Lenin Institute in Moscow.

The color of oneโ€™s skin is no bar to a young man or woman dreaming of making a better world. Like other Negroes, I experienced and saw many injustices and inequities around me based upon color, not ability. I was told that โ€œthe decadent capitalist system is responsible,โ€ that โ€œmass pressureโ€ could force concessions but โ€œthat just prolongs the life of capitalismโ€; that I must unite and work with all those who more or less agree that capitalism must go.

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 systemโ€”that this is the end toward which all the communist efforts among Negroes are directed.
