- In this interview, Gerald Horne and I discuss his two books on Hollywood, Class Struggle in Hollywood, 1930-1950: Moguls, Mobsters, Stars, Reds, & Trade Unionists (University of Texas Press, 2001) and The Final Victim of the Blacklist: John Howard Lawson, Dean of the Hollywood Ten. Dr. Horne also discusses the import of the ongoing 2023 SAG-AFTRA and WGA strikes. We also dig into an early essay of Dr. Horne's entitled "Rethinking the Lumpen: Gangsters and the Political Economy of Capitalism" from the journal Nature, Society, and Thought (1997), and discuss the role of the lumpen in contemporary American politics, specifically with regard to the recent RICO indictment of Donald Trump and co. in Fulton County, Georgia, charged with trying to overturn the results of the 2020 U.S. presidential election.

Will free rainge movie making ever be a thing again, just the case of the intervateing mine set, thinking freely. If so i would like to give my creativity to the craft, with the help of my favorite supper stars Tiffany Haddish, and Tamar Braxton paired.
