Welllllllll, I think you might be a little surprised to know that I have had conversation with Eldridge Cleaver. I asked him how Communism worked for him when he had left the States. I asked him, how come he came back? He told me that at first he thought the promise that there would be bread on everyone's table was a good promise. He said that he changed his mind when he discovered that was most of all there was on everyone's table (generally speaking). He said he came back for his daughter's sake he wanted her to have more, even if it meant he would be met by the Feds.
Did you read his book "Soul on Ice"?
