Startling History of the Unions and Communism

[Twana Blevins]

What I will share with you, will even add more pieces to the puzzle. In finding out how did

Communism ever reach the shores of America? How did socialism ever reach our shores?  I mean when you  open these links, you would see that it was even way back in 1870, that America was even questioning what the Founders wanted for America. Look to socialism, and even Communism.

For if you stop and think of it..  Marx said "Workers of the world Unite!" Where were the American workers? Why they were in the Unions, and the labor movement.  These Unions, and the labor movement were the seeds to bring Communism into the back door of America. They will do so without America not even knowing it is happening.

These links will show one how it all came about. This is why in the 1950's there was an agressive attempt made by the US Gov't to really tell and to Forewarn America, about what is Communism? What is their Agenda for the world?
What are the danger signs to look out for. This is why McCarthy, J Edgar Hoover
went after Communists like he did.

Here is information to share with you on the 1947 Hollywood Strike.


Did you know that by the end of World War II, Communist Party Membership weas close to 600. Examples were: Edward G. Robinson, Fredric March, and Lloyd Bridges were members. There were half a dozen producers and directors who were members of the Communist Party.

Actor Lionel Stander encouraged friends to become members because "you will make out more with the dames."

Many of the party members were militants. And through hard work, managed to take over leadership positions of the Screen Actors Guild.

This push into Hollywood started back in 1935. When a secret directive was issued by the CPUSA (Communist Party of the USA) HQ in NY calling for the
capture of the Hollywood's Labor Unions. The reason why this directive was issued because the CPUSA believed that by doing so they could influence the type of pictures being produced. Also the directive instructed party members to take leadership positions in the so called
intellectual groups in Hollywood. Which composed of directors, writers, and performers.

A quote from Lenin, "Of all the arts, the cinema is the most important."

Here are some links on the Warner Brothers strike of 1946.

Stalin recognized that movies in the 1930s had become the most powerful propaganda tool for influencing mass opinion. That’s why he ordered the Communist Party USA to organize Hollywood screenwriters and crafts workers into Communist dominated labor unions.

Very revealing Pamphlets documents on Communism in America

As you will read that it was back in 1879, that America began to think about Communism. But where the Communists got very aggressive was in the 1920's. This is when as you read in the last links in the last email I sent to you, this is when they went full force into bringing Communism into the Unions here in America.

The key words through to remember are they wanted to bring it to America through the back door. Not to cause another Russian Revolution which was so bloody. But to do so without firing a shot. That you can talk to the hearts, minds, and souls of the American workers. Appeal to their wants, and needs. Once the Communists get into the Unions, and labor movements, it would spread very slowly throughout all of America. Into the hearts, minds, and souls of every American.

Yes as you can see there were warning signs all along people were trying to forewarn America about what their agenda was. But here is something very interesting I have found, that really spells it all out. It goes back to something Glenn Beck has said over and over again on radio, and his tv show. " Don't pay attention to the right hand. Pay attention to what the left hand is doing. " When it comes the Cold War, this is exactly what the Soviet Union was doing.

For if you look at the big picture here, it was right after the American government began
to expose right after World War II, and into the 1950's, what the agenda of the Communists were here in America. This is when the USSR realized they were being exposed. That America and the world was unto its game. This is when they began to scare not only America but the world. That they wanted to blow up the world. To instill
total and complete fear in every heart, mind, and soul, of everyone in the world. The Russian bear was going to pounce on you.

So as America, and the world, focused on the right hand, no one paid attention to the
left hand. Which was spreading their agenda through progressivism throughout America, and the world. Through the back door of the world. Without anyone in the world noticing it.

Wait you hear this from Bishop Fulton Sheen. He said this in 1968, on his show
"Life is Worth Living" What he will say in these two video clips say it all.

Part I
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=usxAD7_VEyA

Part II (Pay attention to the last quote he will talk about. This quote is EXACTLY what those on the far left in the world are doing. It is what the Obama Admin and those on the far left are doing to this very day. It will shock you when you hear it.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l_cXjLWFroM

Now when you open these links, the picture is so clear for all to see.
They sure are!

God Bless!

1947 Communist strike..And who stopped it

Here is some more unbelievable things I unearthed about Communism in Hollywood.

Artie Shaw said "The Soviet Union is more Democratic than the US." He even offered to recite the Soviet constitution to prove it.

The famed director Philip Dunne said this, "All over town the industrious Communist tail wagged the lazy liberal dog."

Kirk Douglas said this about Herb Sorrell when he promised violence if he did not get his way in the studio strike. Sorrell and his band of "sluggers" began smashing trains, and threw rocks at the police. When the police tried to break it up, it got more violent.

"Thousands of people fought in the middle of the street with knives, clubs, battery cables, brass knuckles and chains."

What Sorrell wanted to do is shut down entirely all the movie studios. Anyone who crossed the picket line would become a target of violence.Jack Warner vowed to keep the movie studios in operation. To let this production continue, movie stars were actually led onto the studio lot through a storm drain that led from the LA River.

Who would not be intimidated by these Communist thugs? Ronald Reagan would not. He was staring in the movie Night Unto Night. He sat there seated alone in a bus. Not on the floor as he was advised to do. But in defiance to the Communist thugs, seated upright in the seat. And his bus would pass by the angry and violent Communist picketers.

The other act of defiance by Reagan, came when Sorrell tried to get the Screen Actors Guild to support the strike. Ronald Reagan who was a member of the SAG, took a vote and said no. But since the Communists have already infiltrated the SAG leadership, they suggested then let us all talk about it. Let us come up with a solution. Reagan was also one of those on this arbitration board.

Spencer Tracy said this to his fellow actors." Stay clear from politics." "It was bad for your carrer and could get you in trouble." He also said this, "Remember who shot Lincoln. Reagan did not heed the warning. He met with them, and he continued to go to the set to make the movie Night Unto Night. He even started to get death threats from the CSU, and the Communist Party. They would say to him, "If you continue to oppose the CSU strike, a squad would disfigure his face with acid." It was then Reagan got a gun and hired bodyguards.

Since all of this intimidation and death threats did not work, the Communist Party members in the industry began to verbally attack Reagan and others for taking their stand against the strike. Alexander Knox who portrayed Woodrow Wilson in a movie, (imagine that a Communist portraying Wilson), called Reagan a "fraud." That he was talking, "Out both sides of his mouth." The CSU called for a boycott of his movies. They would hand out flyers so he and the other stars who defied the strike as "stooges." Regan even stars that were once friendly to him, now come up to his face as close as they could. With there eyes burning with hatred, hissed and spitted the word "Fascist" right in his face.

But through this all Ronald Reagan and a few other stars stood firm, and would not back down. It was because of this the strike had fizzled out. Reagan was hailed as a hero. Jack Warner said about him, "he was a tower of strength."

However the best quote about Reagan was from a Communist actor himself. His name was Sterling Hayden.He said this about Reagan before Congress and how the Communists tried in vain to paralyze Hollywood, to take over the unions there. When he was asked why did the plot fail? He said this, "They had run into Reagan." "He was a one-man batallion."

It was because of this defiance, that he was made the President of the Screen Actors Guild. However, even though the strike was now over. The CSU ceased to exist. The Communists in the SAG, were still in leadership roles. But they were now more radicalized then ever. They were mad as hell. But Reagan made sure this all would end. He then issued a decree, stating no Communist could ever be a officer of the SAG. In a vote of 1,307 to 157, it had passed.

On September 25, 1947, Ronald Reagan was called to testify before the Un American Activites Committee of the US Congress. They were conducting hearings on Communism in Hollywood. I will find Reagan's testimony and share it with you. But in the meantime, just read this testimony Actress Ayn Rand said before this Committee. She is talking about the film Song in Russia. She lived in St Petersburg, Russia.

http://www.noblesoul.com/orc/texts/huac.html

From her testimony...

..."If it is to deceive the American people, if it were to present to the American people a better picture of Russia than it really is, then that sort of an attitude is nothing but the theory of the Nazi elite -- that a choice group of intellectual or other leaders will tell the people lies for their own good. That I don't think is the American way of giving people information. We do not have to deceive the people at any time, in war or peace. If it was to please the Russians, I don't see how you can please the Russians by telling them that we are fools. To what extent we have done it, you can see right now. You can see the results right now. If we present a picture like that as our version of what goes on in Russia, what will they think of it? We don't win anybody's friendship. We will only win their contempt, and as you know the Russians have been behaving like this"...


..."I fully believe Mr. Mayer when he says that he did not make a Communist picture. To do him justice, I can tell you I noticed, by watching the picture, where there was an effort to cut propaganda out. I believe he tried to cut propaganda out of the picture, but the terrible thing is the carelessness with ideas, not realizing that the mere presentation of that kind of happy existence in a country of slavery and horror is terrible because it is propaganda. You are telling people that it is all right to live in a totalitarian state"....

One last quote...

..." That is not what I said. I was not in a position to make that decision. If I were, I would tell you what I would do. That is not what we are discussing. We are discussing the fact that our country was an ally of Russia, and the question is: what should we tell the American people about it -- the truth or a lie? If we had good reason, if that is what you believe, all right, then why not tell the truth? Say it is a dictatorship, but we want to be associated with it. Say it is worthwhile being associated with the devil, as Churchill said, in order to defeat another evil which is Hitler. There might be some good argument made for that. But why pretend that Russia was not what it was?"...

One last thing to share with you on this at this time...

This is a quote from a piece written by: Oksana Bulgakova
The Russian Cinematic Culture

..."Vladimir Lenin formulated one of the Communist Party's political postulates in regard to cinema by announcing it to be, in 1922, "the most important of all the arts." [3] Yet it was truly made the most important medium of the new society by Joseph Stalin, who expressed this almost metaphysical conviction in 1924: "Film is an illusion, but it dictates its laws to life..."

Now you can see why Hollywood is so far left and Communist these days..


To be continued!

There are two parties in socialist party

You need to look at not only the left in the socialist party but also the right of the socialist party. The political slogan Workers of the World, Unite, political slogan of Karl Marx, Friedrich Engels and Andy Stern found in the communist manifesto. More chilling is that Andy Stern also denounced the communist version and inserted common interest before self interest, this is the Programme of the NSDAP - Workers' Party.

The Programme of the German Workers' Party is designed to be of limited duration. The leaders have no intention, once the aims announced in it have been achieved, of establishing fresh ones, merely in order to increase, artificially, the discontent of the masses and so ensure the continued existence of the Party.

Here are the 25 points of the NSDAP - Workers' Party.
1. We demand the union of all Germany in a Greater Germany on the basis of the right of national self-determination.
2. We demand equality of rights for the German people in its dealings with other nations, and the revocation of the peace treaties of Versailles and Saint-Germain.
3. We demand land and territory (colonies) to feed our people and to settle our surplus population.
4. Only members of the nation may be citizens of the State. Only those of German blood, whatever be their creed, may be members of the nation. Accordingly, no Jew may be a member of the nation.
5. Non-citizens may live in Germany only as guests and must be subject to laws for aliens.
6. The right to vote on the State's government and legislation shall be enjoyed by the citizens of the State alone. We demand therefore that all official appointments, of whatever kind, whether in the Reich, in the states or in the smaller localities, shall be held by none but citizens.
We oppose the corrupting parliamentary custom of filling posts merely in accordance with party considerations, and without reference to character or abilities.
7. We demand that the State shall make it its primary duty to provide a livelihood for its citizens. If it should prove impossible to feed the entire population, foreign nationals (non-citizens) must be deported from the Reich.
8. All non-German immigration must be prevented. We demand that all non-Germans who entered Germany after 2 August 1914 shall be required to leave the Reich forthwith.
9. All citizens shall have equal rights and duties.
10. It must be the first duty of every citizen to perform physical or mental work. The activities of the individual must not clash with the general interest, but must proceed within the framework of the community and be for the general good.
We demand therefore:

11. The abolition of incomes unearned by work.
The breaking of the slavery of interest

12. In view of the enormous sacrifices of life and property demanded of a nation by any war, personal enrichment from war must be regarded as a crime against the nation. We demand therefore the ruthless confiscation of all war profits.
13. We demand the nationalization of all businesses which have been formed into corporations (trusts).
14. We demand profit-sharing in large industrial enterprises.
15. We demand the extensive development of insurance for old age.
16. We demand the creation and maintenance of a healthy middle class, the immediate communalizing of big department stores, and their lease at a cheap rate to small traders, and that the utmost consideration shall be shown to all small traders in the placing of State and municiple orders.
17. We demand a land reform suitable to our national requirements, the passing of a law for the expropriation of land for communal purposes without compensation; the abolition of ground rent, and the prohibition of all speculation in land. *
18. We demand the ruthless prosecution of those whose activities are injurious to the common interest. Common criminals, usurers, profiteers, etc., must be punished with death, whatever their creed or race.
19. We demand that Roman Law, which serves a materialistic world order, be replaced by a German common law.
20. The State must consider a thorough reconstruction of our national system of education (with the aim of opening up to every able and hard-working German the possibility of higher education and of thus obtaining advancement). The curricula of all educational establishments must be brought into line with the requirements of practical life. The aim of the school must be to give the pupil, beginning with the first sign of intelligence, a grasp of the nation of the State (through the study of civic affairs). We demand the education of gifted children of poor parents, whatever their class or occupation, at the expense of the State.
21. The State must ensure that the nation's health standards are raised by protecting mothers and infants, by prohibiting child labor, by promoting physical strength through legislation providing for compulsory gymnastics and sports, and by the extensive support of clubs engaged in the physical training of youth.
22. We demand the abolition of the mercenary army and the foundation of a people's army.
23. We demand legal warfare on deliberate political mendacity and its dissemination in the press. To facilitate the creation of a German national press we demand:
(a) that all editors of, and contributors to newspapers appearing in the German language must be members of the nation;
(b) that no non-German newspapers may appear without the express permission of the State. They must not be printed in the German language;
(c) that non-Germans shall be prohibited by law from participating financially in or influencing German newspapers, and that the penalty for contravening such a law shall be the suppression of any such newspaper, and the immediate deportation of the non-Germans involved.
The publishing of papers which are not conducive to the national welfare must be forbidden. We demand the legal prosecution of all those tendencies in art and literature which corrupt our national life, and the suppression of cultural events which violate this demand.
24. We demand freedom for all religious denominations in the State, provided they do not threaten its existence not offend the moral feelings of the German race.
The Party, as such, stands for positive Christianity, but does not commit itself to any particular denomination. It combats the Jewish-materialistic spirit within and without us, and is convinced that our nation can achieve permanent health only from within on the basis of the principle: The common interest before self-interest.
25. To put the whole of this programme into effect, we demand the creation of a strong central state power for the Reich; the unconditional authority of the political central Parliament over the entire Reich and its organizations; and the formation of Corporations based on estate and occupation for the purpose of carrying out the general legislation passed by the Reich in the various German states.
Each of these points needs scrutiny such as “All citizens shall have equal rights and duties.” The government controlling rights, equal rights sounds good but only for citizens. So what happened to the Jews “Only members of the nation may be citizens of the State. Only those of German blood, whatever be their creed, may be members of the nation. Accordingly, no Jew may be a member of the nation.”

Anton Drexler and Adolf Hitler wrote these 25 points, Anton Drexler was in part responsible for sponsoring Adolf Hitler in to the labor union. In Mein Kampf, Hitler wholly agreed with the letter given to him by Anton Drexler at their first meeting. Hitler came to power in the German Workers Party with the help of Anton Drexler as they shared the same ideology. If you exchange the names in later demagoguism to the current names used they seem to be the same message we here today in this letter.

************
German Workers' Party
My Political Awakening

Dear Colleagues,

It is a workmate who is speaking to you -- one who still stands at the lathe.

What he has to say to you might seem rather strange and surprising, since it sounds very different to what you are accustomed to hear. I am a socialist like yourselves, and want manual workers to gain equality with other creative groups, as well as the annihilation of layabouts and drones, and the confiscation of profits earned without work or effort.

I still hope for a true and just form of socialism, the salvation of the working masses, and the freeing of creative mankind from the chains of exploitative capitalism.

But I am convinced that we are not on the right path to reach this goal.

Many of our leaders are indeed honest men, and want the best for the workers. But there are also a number who are in the service of a foreign power.

They have used the workers' movement as an instrument for certain special interests. They have used the workers' organisations as a bodyguard for unproductive stock exchange and loan capitalism. As a result of my investigations, I am convinced:


That there is a secret work conspiracy which, while speaking much about humanity and tolerance, in reality wants only to harness the people to a new yoke;


That a number of workers' leaders, being big capitalists, belong to this group;


That 300 big bankers, financiers and press barons, who are interconnected across the world, are the real dictators; they belong almost exclusively to the "chosen people"; they are all members of this same secret conspiracy, which organises world politics, namely, the international Lodge Of Freemasons; their aim is
THE DICTATORSHIP OF MONEY OVER WORK

These bank and stock exchange dictators do nothing openly, for they have their agents in the workers' movement, and they pay them well. They turn the people's resentment, from against themselves, onto the small property owners, the factory owners, and the farmers, who with all their money could hardly pay the interest owing to the big bankers. The House Of Rothschild alone owns more capital than all of German heavy industry together.

When will we finally see through the false friends of our movement? The Jewish big capitalist always plays our friend and dogooder; but he only does it to make us into his slaves. The trusting worker is going to help him to set up the world dictatorship of Jewry. Because that is their goal, as it states in the Bible: All the peoples will serve you, all the wealth of the world will belong to you. In the Talmud it says: A time is coming when every Jew will have 2800 slaves.

Comrades, do you want to be Jewish slaves?

An end to false pride! We workers always give it out that we have created all human culture with our bare hands. But is that right? What about teachers, inventors, artists, researchers and technicians?

Are the middle classes, the bourgeoisie, and the farmers not productive? And do they not also suffer under the dictatorship of big capital, just like us? Would it not make more sense to offer them our hand and together turn on our common enemy? It is the particular trick of the capitalist exploiters that they are able to play the workers and the bourgeoisie off one against the other, and thereby keep them powerless.

Shake off your Jewish leaders, and those in the pay of Judas! And one final point: Do not expect anything from Bolshevism. It does not bring the worker freedom. In Russia the eight hour day has been abolished. There are no more workers' councils. All cower under the dictatorship of a hundred government commissars, who are nine tenths Jewish.

Bolshevism is a Jewish swindle.


Anton Drexler, toolmaker,
München,
1920.

One of the most famous statements of this time was attributed to Pastor Martin Niemöller; They came first for the Communists, and I did not speak up because I was not a Communist. Then they came for the trade unionists, and I did not speak up because I was not a trade unionist. Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak up because I was not a Jew. Then they came for me and by that time, no one was left to speak up. This and many more passages are often excused as a meaningless cliché but are under the alarming heading of Never Forget! Some say it is not correct to call the left Nazis but I say the parallels are too much to ignore, what this is was the beginning, the beginning of a horrible wound to humanity and mankind. No one can for tell the future but history does tell us a likely possibility if we chose this path, this is one path that needs to be soundly rejected by everyone even if you find a small handful of similarities.
