🖨️ Print Article

Our guest is Dr. Gerald Horne, who discusses his newly republished International Publishers book, “Black and Red:  Du Bois and the Afro-American response to the Cold War, 1944-63, the 40th anniversary edition."

“In Black & Red, Gerald Horne shows that Du Bois’ later activities were the culmination of a lifelong commitment, which Du Bois resolutely followed despite the threats of anti-Black Cold War-era McCarthy repression.”
