Title: Wealthy Elites Sabotaging Achievements of the Masses for Communist Ideals and Inhibiting advancement
In the mid-20th century, Bella Dodd, a former high-ranking member of the American Communist Party, penned a revealing autobiographical account titled "School of Darkness." The book offers a first-hand account of Dodd's experiences within the Communist Party USA (CPUSA) and her subsequent renunciation of communism.
Born in Italy around 1904, Dodd graduated from Hunter College and NYU Law School before becoming head of the New York State Teachers Union and a member of the CPUSA's National Council until 1949. However, her tenure with the party was not without controversy, as she was expelled and smeared with allegations of racism and anti-Semitism.
Dodd's book paints a picture of a sinister plot to infiltrate and control political organizations in the United States. She specifically references the Progressive Party of 1948, claiming that it was effectively controlled by top U.S. Communists, such as William Z. Foster and Eugene Dennis, who staffed it with loyalists and dictated its policies to serve as a political substitute for the Communist Party if it were outlawed.
One of Dodd's most notable claims is that Communism aimed to create new types of human beings who would conform to their blueprint for the world. This was evident in her assertion that the Communist Party had over 1100 members become Catholic priests in the 1930s, a move she saw as an attempt to subvert religious institutions.
Another significant claim Dodd made was that censorship was crucial to Communists. She often witnessed leaders pulling books from shelves in members' homes and warning them to destroy them. Furthermore, she suspected that the suicide of a CPUSA leader was, in fact, a murder.
Regarding the historical context, Dodd's time was marked by ideological struggle as Communist efforts to influence American institutions were a real concern to many. She characterizes her communist experience as attendance in a "school of darkness" emphasizing hate and subversion, with an aim to control various sectors of society, including political parties, labor unions, and even religious institutions.
However, it's important to note that Dodd's book does not provide scholarly or corroborated evidence linking Masonic Jewish central bankers with Communism in a coordinated takeover of the United States. Such assertions are not supported by reputable historical documentation or Dodd's own memoir as understood from the sources available.
Recent findings from "The Secret World of American Communism" suggest that the CPUSA was indeed a puppet of Moscow and that the Roosevelt and Truman administrations were practically run by Soviet agents like Alger Hiss, Harry Hopkins, and Harry Dexter White. This further supports Dodd's claims about the Communist Party's infiltration and control efforts in the United States.
In conclusion, Bella Dodd's "School of Darkness" offers valuable insights into the Communist Party's attempts to subvert American institutions during the mid-20th century. While her claims about Masonic Jewish central bankers may not be substantiated, her account remains a significant contribution to understanding the ideological struggles of the time.
