ARGENTINA, CHINA, the AMERICAN UNIVERSITY

ARGENTINA, CHINA, the AMERICAN UNIVERSITY

Published Monday, January 15, 2024 A note from OCPAC FOUNDATION PRESIDENT BOB LINN Last week’s presentation from Javier Milei (Argentina), Tucker Carlson, Wade Burleson, Scott Hasson, and Senator Shane Jett painted for us the grim picture of the way socialism destroys economies and people wherever it travels. The meeting was stunning because Argentina’s socialist past is a mirror image of America’s current pathway to the proximate future. Whether it is called Maoist, Marxist, or Stalinist . . . Leftist dogma contains an unchanging message. No matter what language is used, no matter the nationality of the people being addressed, nor the physical geography at hand . . . the message and the devastation that follows a socialist conquest remains ideologically and consequentially fixed. Earlier this month, OCPAC Foundation Board Chairman, Wade Burleson, exposed those Marxist realities in my own alma mater, Indiana University (IU). Wade quoted an article from a frequent student contributor to the campus newspaper, the Indiana Daily Student. Jared Quigg is an IU senior majoring in journalism. On January 4, 2024, Jared published a list of his top six most important books he thinks the youth of the Hoosier state’s flagship university should read. (No disrespect intended to either Notre Dame or Purdue.) Quigg’s recommended reading is a list of leftists including Lenin, Marx, and other communist ideologues. Here are three of them he listed: Quigg is one of IU’s committed student Marxists. He quotes freely from Howard Zinn, the discredited Leftist author of “A People’s History of the United States” and refers to himself as a fellow comrade with Marxist leaders. Wade’s discovery of what has been a sustained series of communist editorials in the Indiana University student paper drew my attention to an article which appeared five years ago during the IU Bicentennial celebrations. It was titled: Reds Among the Cream and Crimson In 1946, three IU law school faculty members—Dean Bernard Gavit, Professor Fowler Harper, and Associate Professor Howard Mann—signed a petition to include the Communist Party on the state ballot. As a result, in August of 1946, angry letters from Indiana citizens arrived in the office of IU President Herman B Wells. He had a problem on his hands. ONE ANGRY CITIZEN WROTE THIS: Take steps to fire the Reds connected with your school system. If they can’t find another position, Joe Stalin will welcome them with open arms. Gavit, Harper, and Mann, must go. Wells filed away the angry letters into his folder “Letters of Complaints and Criticisms.” He would soon need more than 25 folders to house his IU Communist Investigation records. Throughout the fall of 1946, records were compiled. Twenty-nine witnesses testified and 400 pages of documentation were recorded. Testimony from The American Legion State Commander W. I. Brunton went like this: The American Legion does not subscribe to a theory that the ugly head of communism can be crushed in this country by ignoring its presence like an ostrich hides its head in the sand. Neither does The American Legion subscribe to a theory that communists should be placed on the ballot in order that we may know their strength. We of The American Legion are not interested in taking a census of rattlesnakes. William Sayer, The American Legion’s state adjutant, suggested the professors wanted to be agitators since the Communist Party “attempts to cause trouble between the negro race and the white race …” And now, nearly 80 years later, the IU student paper is publishing articles promoting communism. Socialism is a cancer which has corroded societies the world over. None more violently than in the century we just left. And none more representative of the clear and present danger we are battling in Oklahoma’s educational institutions today. You will be privileged to meet and hear a leading national spokeswoman for this fight, Xi Van Fleet. She grew up in the midst of the violence of the Maoist cultural revolution and its enforcement by the Red Guards. Make plans to come to the Oklahoma History Center next week on Wednesday, January 24 at noon. This Wednesday will be a meeting of OCPAC Action at the Oklahoma History Center. ___________ Read Wade’s entire article in ISTORIA on Indiana and Communism!
