My sis lives in San Antonio, and I used to think she was very non-radical, not to put too fine a point on it. But when I visited her several years ago, she played a DVD for me of three women (one Italian and two Americans if I recall) who had been imprisoned and tortured in the Deep South for being communists in the 1950's, I think it was. Just understanding her outrage about that DVD changed all my ideas about her politics. And it seems the methods haven't changed much in the last fifty years. Thank you for this.
