...defendant, said Federal Prosecutor John Douglass, was nothing short of a walking "gold mine" of U.S. intelligence capabilities. He knew how the U.S. was able to intercept the Soviet Union's "command and control" communications, which contained military instructions from "the highest level" of the Kremlin to the next echelon of authority, according to the defendant's former supervisor. He was familiar with a top-secret program for processing encoded Soviet messages and aware that it was being given an "upgraded capability" that would maintain its usefulness into the 1990s. He was the author of a 60-page "encyclopedia...
...these data, said Douglass, were passed to the Soviet Union by Ronald W. Pelton, 44, a former middle-level analyst for the super secret National Security Agency, which specializes in gathering electronic intelligence.

Lawless, Ralph Bunch, Robert Weaver, Whitney Young, Arthur Mitchell, Mondedcia Johnson, John Hope Franklin, Countee Cullen, Eve B. Douglass (Radcliffe)--the list goes on and on. It would be a rewarding experience for students to become even more aware of the phenomenally high ratio of Black Harvardians who have made major contributions to the advancement of Black people and indeed, to all aspects of civilization as a whole. In fact...
...stand in the revolutionary tradition of the anti-slavery fighters John Brown and Frederick Douglass. To complete the finished demoratic tasks of the Civil War, we look to the multi-racial American working class. In this period of imperialist decay, there is no longer a radical or "progressive" wing of the capitalist ruling class; the whole system stands squarely counterposed to Black freedom. Forward to the Third American Revolution, a proletarian revolution by a Trotskyist vanguard party with a strong black leadership component. Finish the Civil War--for Black Liberation in a workers' America...
