«On Monday, Sen. Lindsey Graham went on Fox & Friends and called the “Squad”—the four freshmen representatives and women of color currently being targeted by President Donald Trump—“a bunch of communists.” The language sounded familiar to some. “Since at least the 1950s,” activist Bree Newsome Bass said on Twitter, “ ‘communist’ has become a popular coded word for n—-r. Let’s be real.” On Wednesday, “Squad” member Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez added her own explanation: The term communist
“was one of the preferred smears against integrating schools, & one
of the main attacks segregationists used against MLK Jr.” But this
red-baiting sideshow to the escalating racist rhetoric from the White
House has even deeper roots than that. “Black activists are Reds” is, in
fact, one of American racism’s greatest hits.»
