In this episode, we learn about the Red Scare and the Hollywood Blacklist by discussing the 2015 movie Trumbo starring Bryan Cranston. Why has America been freaked out by communism for so long? What effect has this had on our politics and our culture? Why does anybody try to get work done in a bathroom? Tune in to find out!
And in our Organization Corner, we give some news recommendations and general tips for leftists who want to stay informed in a world full of fake news and capitalist propaganda.
