Now that date is odd compared to docs I found on the Student Travel trips. I wonder if since Robeson was staff, would there be a travel waiver for passports? I’ll upload them to my server in a moment.

>>>Susan Blake isn’t the only one who places Ann in WA state with an infant in 1961, she is one of many.

Was Stanley Ann in student housing when she attended the university? If so, where was the baby?

>>African Leader Jomo Kenyatta

Yeah; but Kenyatta was in prison from ‘53 to ‘61. If Robeson knew him it was either before ‘52 or after ‘61. So if Robeson lost he passport after ‘55, he either befriend Kenyatta before he lost his passport or did some kind of traveling on a school organized trip with provisions for travel on that grant program.

Now to totally make you all crazy! Look at this.

I think I'm going back to the consideration of a lebensborn type program being in place.

Can’t this be tested by someone taking his water glass to a friend working in a lab? Everyone in genealogy is having their DNA tested these days.

Lebensborn was started by Hitler to create a master race.

Contrary to propaganda, this practice has NOT ended. IMO, WW2 never ended.

The “Lebensborn”

Lebensborn means "spring of life". The "Lebensborn" project was one of most secret and terrifying Nazi projects. Heinrich Himmler created The "Lebensborn" on December 12th, 1935. The goal of this society ("Registered Society Lebensborn - Lebensborn Eingetragener Verein") was to offer to young girls "racially pure" the possibility to give birth to a child in secret. The child was then given to the SS organization which took in charge his "education" and adoption.

In the beginning, the "Lebensborn" were SS nurseries. But in order to create a "super-race", the SS transformed these nurseries in "meeting places" for "racially pure" German women who wanted to meet and make children with SS officers. The children born in the Lebensborn were taken in charge by the SS and it is important to know that most of them were also victims of this race policy....

From 1939, one of the most horrible side of the Lebensborn policy was the kidnapping of children "racially goods" in the eastern occupied countries. These kidnappings were organized by the SS in order to take by force children who matched the Nazi's racial criteria (blond hair, blue eyes, etc....). Thousands of children were transferred to the "Lebensborn" centers in order to be "Germanized". In these centers, everything was done to force the children to reject and forget their birth parents. As an example, the SS nurses tried to persuade the children that they were deliberately abandoned by their parents. The children who refused the Nazi education were often beaten. Most of them were finally transferred to concentration camps (most of the time Kalish in Poland) and exterminated. The others were adopted by SS families.

RED LEBENSBORN

The “Lebensborn” of Radjavi worked beings without family fasteners, insensitive and superbly faithful to the Organization. In Occident, these children allow the movement to collect social assistances. They also take part in the collection campaigns of funds organized on the public highway.

If, in spite of these restrictions and handling, somebody tries to leave the Organization of Moujahideen, it is found in the prison of the camp of Achraf, then extradited towards Iran or carried out.

This piece is to show that the Student Committee for Travel to Cuba was bringing students to Cuba. I have another that I will upload to show that Mercer Island High School was a participent. This piece is referencing '63 and '64; but it isn't limited to those years. One of the organizers of these trips was Phil Luce. He is still alive and in Long Island NY.

Supplemental:

http://goexcelglobal.com/students-cuba-phil_luce.pdf The Cuban Revolution and the Emergence of New York’s Radical Youth, 1961–1965

On 4 July 1963, only about nine months after the Cuban Missile Crisis, Premier Fidel Castro in his green beret and combat jacket defeated four American students at table tennis on Veradero Beach in Cuba. Reuters reported that it was a “surprise visit” by Castro to fifty-nine American students who were visiting the island despite the U.S. State Department’s travel regulations. The trips, organized by the Student Committee for Travel to Cuba (SCTC) in 1963 and 1964, were groundbreaking events in the development of student radicalism in the sixties. The U.S. government and the media of the time paid special attention to those students by regarding their activities as marking the emergence of a New Left wing in the U.S.

The American sixties can never fully be understood unless the period is situated in the international context of the post-World War II era, including not only the Cold War relations between the First and Second Worlds but also the entangled web of post-colonial relations among all three worlds. The activities of the SCTC were organized as a publicity campaign of the Progressive Labor Movement (PLM) in New York City, which was a Maoist group that split from the Communist Party USA in the beginning of the sixties. This split not only reflected the international change of Communist leadership but also symbolized the generational shift of American radicalism from the Old Left to the New. The city of New York served as a site for intellectual, cultural, and political interactions that spurred this transformation and enabled the SCTC to send students to revolutionary Cuba. Cuba was a window to the Third World through which radical youths absorbed the rhetoric of anti-imperialism and national liberation. When it was incorporated into the American tradition of civil disobedience, the course for political developments on the streets in the latter half of the sixties was set.

Nevertheless, the movements of Third World-inspired New Leftists, including the PLM and the SCTC, have been neglected by research focused on youth activism in the sixties. The main reason for this is that those stories have never found a comfortable place in the prevailing narrative of the sixties, which is now called the “New Left Consensus.”

Intellectuals of the anti-Vietnam War generation defensively reacted to the assault by conservatives in the eighties and the nineties that the New Left had had a destructive effect on the American political tradition. Exradical scholars, in many cases, veterans of the Students for a Democratic Society (SDS), asserted their view of the sixties as an era of authentic American protest.

Hey Fred, you were right, Robeson did lose his passport in the 50s. But I think it was fought in court. See below:

Supplemental:

Travel to Cuba Fact Sheet

The Fight for the Right to Travel to Cuba Chronology

The U.S. has had restrictions on travel to Cuba for most of the past 40 years. While the Constitutional right to travel was technically won in a 1958 Supreme Court decision, the U.S. government and its ideological allies have tried to prevent us from traveling through a variety of legal, extra legal, and illegal means. Since the beginning, people have fought back vigorously and continuously for our right to travel to Cuba.

In the 1950’s the US government attempted to curtail our right to travel through passport controls (either by not issuing a passport to certain persons – Paul Robeson and Rockwell Kent were the most famous) or – when that method failed to survive court challenges – by listing countries in the passport which were ‘invalid’ for travel. When this method also failed in court, the government switched from ‘travel controls’ to ‘currency controls’. The current restrictions on travel to Cuba come under the Treasury Department - and not the State Department- because they have to do with the spending of money by US citizens, residents, and corporations. Of course, these ‘currency controls’ are just a back door method to restrict our right to travel.

The Student Committee for Travel to Cuba used some type of diplomatic access/routes. So if Robeson took the kids on a class trip there, his personal passport probably probably wasn’t needed.
