释义 |
The National Council of Arts, Sciences and Professions (NCASP or ASP) was a United States-based socialist organization of the 1950s. The ASP sponsored the Cultural and Scientific Conference for World Peace, held at the Waldorf-Astoria hotel in New York City for 3 days in late March, 1949.[1] It was a controversial conference, picketed by Catholic War Veterans. W. E. B. Du Bois gave an impassioned speech on the final night.[2] The ASP asked Du Bois to represent them at the World Congress of the Partisans of Peace in Paris in April 1949.[3] Du Bois also attended, on behalf of the ASP, the All-Soviet Peace Conference in August 1949.[4] Ronald Reagan was a former member of the Hollywood chapter.[5] Footnotes1. ^Lewis, p 684. 2. ^Lewis, p 685. 3. ^Lewis, p 686. 4. ^Lewis, p 687. 5. ^{{cite magazine|url=https://www.newyorker.com/magazine/1987/10/05/policing-americas-writers|date=October 5, 1987|work=The New Yorker|title=Policing America’s Writers|first=Herbert|last=Mitgang}} References
