Chuck Baldwin: There's no doubt that you shaped the culture.
In the book, I notice a picture of you with Ron Radosh and his daughter at Karl Marx's tomb, High Gate Cemetery, London 1966. I take it that when that picture was taken you had quite an infatuation for Karl Marx.
David Horowitz: Oh yea, I was a Marxist. And I describe in the book how when I was in London I was approached by the KGB. This agent took me to lunch and eventually asked me to spy for the Soviet Union. He put money in my pocket and so forth. I happened to reject his advances. I had more ambitious goals for myself which was I guess to be the new Marx or something like that. But I saw him talking to a lot of other people on the "left" whom I knew. And I know, not only from personal experience, but from talking to people that there were many, many, there must have been hundreds maybe thousands of contacts between "new leftist" and the KGB and the Cuban Intelligence and Vietnamese Communist. I am the only one who has reported these incidents that I know about in Radical Son.

Any time you see Liberal/Progressive protests you can see the Communist/Socialist posters that the media does not report.
Why does the media not want you to see these posters? Well, that is obvious... it says more about the media than the Communist/Socialist posters themselves.
I love Horowitz. Like a brother, of course.
I ordered a used copy of “Radical Son” on Amazon.com last week. I’m looking forward to reading it.
It’s a great book—you will really enjoy it. When you get a chance read his “Utopia”—Horowitz has it nailed down. We lived in Highgate for 2 years. I was amazed at the size of the Karl Marx monument and horrified at the state of the cemetery—it was very unkempt. Somehow I’ve always thought of the Brits as being very tidy.
