Tarnished Gold
At a time when Communism continues to maintain a patina of coolness despite the tens of millions murdered by its adherents and the billions who have lived under its tyrannies, Patrick Chura has written a sympathetic biography of American Communism’s foremost literary hatchet man.
Michael Gold: The People’s Writer is a volume in the SUNY series in Contemporary Jewish Literature and Culture. Chura, a professor of English at the University of Akron, offers a pro forma mea culpa by admitting that Gold might have been wrong in his idolization of Stalin before asserting that American Communists like Gold were “collectively, a peaceful, democratic, and consistently progressive force for good in United States social history.” Gold’s life and work supposedly offer lessons for today on how to defeat “racism, anti-Semitism, fascism, and xenophobia.” Such praise is not warranted, not for Gold and not for the CPUSA.

The strident I’ll use the term “radical” nature of the some of the lyrics in the Gellert field archive is precisely what raised eyebrows, approvingly and disapprovingly. It seemed new and different. That is, the songs appeared so distinct from a “We Shall Overcome” sentimen

Walter Bernstein, whose career as a top film and television screenwriter was derailed by the McCarthy-era blacklist, and who decades later turned that experience into one of his best-known films, âThe Front,â died on Saturday morning at his home in Manhattan. He was 101.
His wife, Gloria Loomis, said the cause was pneumonia.
Described in a 2014 Esquire profile as a âhuman Energizer bunny,â Mr. Bernstein was writing, teaching, and generating screenplay ideas well into his 90s. Until recently, he had several projects in various stages of development. He created the BBC mystery miniseries âHiddenâ in 2011, and he was an adjunct instructor of dramatic writing at New York Univer
