The American Negro in the Communist Party (Classic Reprint) - Softcover

Excerpt from The American Negro in the Communist Party

The Communist Party in the United States of America, in its continuing efforts to infiltrate and destroy the constitutional govern ment Of this country, has made the minority groups in the United States prime targets of attack. The control of majorities by minorities is a fundamental precept of Marxism and the individual Communist agent and party member has been drilled and schooled in the tech niques and tactics of achieving such control through organized and pliable minorities. To this end the Communist conspiracy has concentrated on capturing smaller groups with the ultimate objective of seizure of the whole. One of the principal goals of the Communist Party in the United States is the infiltration and control Of the Negro population in this country.

The House Committee on un-american Activities has prepared this report in order to demonstrate some of the efforts that have been made by the Communist Party in this area and to recount the failure of the Communist experiment. It is hoped that this report may be a warning to other groups which find themselves, as minorities, targets of Communist infiltration and deception.

The fact that the Communist conspiracy has experienced so little success in attracting the American Negro to its cause reflects favorably on the loyalty and integrity of the vast majority of the Negro citizens. To attest to this fact we restate the words Of Mr. J. Edgar Hoover, Director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation, which appeared in the Congressional Record of January 26, 1953: We recently reviewed the origins of of the leading members of the' Communist Party. The results were most interesting. Only 411 were Negroes but of the remaining we found that or 911a; percent were either of foreign birth or born of foreign parents. The fact that only 411 Negroes were found in this select group is strong evidence that the American Negro is not hoodwinked by these false messiahs.
