The Opinions of Mankind: Racial Issues, Press and Propaganda in the Cold War
Richard Lentz
During the Cold War, the Soviets were quick to publicize incidents of racial hostility in the United States. Since violence against minorities was the perfect foil to America's claim to be defenders of freedom, news of these occurrences was exploited to full advantage by the Russians. This book not only delves into the dissemination of race-related news to foreign outlets but also explores the impact foreign perceptions of domestic racism had on the U. S. government and its handling of foreign relations during the period.
