Robeson's Socialism Was Inextricably Bound Up With His Opposition to Racism in the Us

Robeson's socialism was inextricably bound up with his opposition to racism in the us. His relief at the lack of risism there may remind us of frederick douglas, who was struck by the openness he found in britain and ireland. Roveson noted this parallel between douglas and himself explaining why he became a celebrated world citizen yet always returned home. The american government did its best to make him regret this choice.
