Oh yes. He even sang the Soviet and Chinese national anthems and sang union bum songs from the IWWP. When he went up to testify he plead the 5th and clammed up rather than own up.

I have heard that Robeson was a red nut, but never a thing about Baker before this. I hope that she didn’t die still believing the Big Lie.
