Russian military leaders have expressed concern about US plans
for a national missile defense system. Will defense technology be
limited by possibilities for a strategic imbalance? Is this just SDI
all over again?

PAUL ROBESON, JR.: That is ironic. It's also ironic because
he's better known in half a dozen other countries than he is here,
including the United Kingdom, Russia, China, India, and lots more.
What was fascinating at a major exhibition about his life in New
York City, a Queens... A group of Queens school kids, high school
kids, was touring the exhibition, and it was two Russian kids and
a Chinese kid who were explaining to the African Americans who
Paul Robeson was. So there is an extraordinary juxtaposition,
which brings me back to the McCarthy era. I think there is little
understanding today of the degree and intensity of cultural and
political suppression in that decade from about the beginning of
the Cold War until 1955-56. Seems that 'global culture' has
more awareness of this Human Giant - Paul Robeson, than Americans ..
thanks to the Nazi distortion of their culture. http://www.pbs.org/newshour/conversation/jan-june01/robeson_04-17.html
