[QUOTE="DaleM, post: 13704168, member: 7405"] It is a tough call for a lot of people. The US press was in love with him. His period of glory was when communism was in its death throes in a dissolving Soviet Union. I almost think it became a racial issue with our press, white power vs black slavery (apartheid). it became an emotional issue, the past be damned and ignored. The US black caucus was enamored by his persecution and persistence. So it is like his struggle was only against the white slave drivers, not to promote a communist agenda as he originally intended. Communism was becoming a laughable term that no one seen as a legitimate threat. History will in the end lean towards his good side and ignore his bad side, he is not a right wing guy so let us not demonize him. LOL! [/QUOTE]
