ABSTRACT
All these works of art do not state but imply,and hammer and hammer away as though it were a fact . . . That the United States is the free-est country in the world,That the laws of this country are made for benefit of the workers, That the workers must fight and die for their country,That every worker not born here is inferior and suspicious,That every worker not born white is inferior and despicable And so on and so forth . . . Now then - ARTis a weapon in the fight for myinterests. Of course . . . quite confidentially . . . between ourselves . . . (The song ‘Left’ is heard off stage and a mass of workers march on singing) song: LEFT LEFT LEFT LEFTThe bugles are calling to fight,Left, Left, Left, Left.We’ll answer the call to unite.We’re marching hand in hand with the mass,We dramatize the fight of the classes With powerful melody.Our work will weld our strength and might And what we play is dynamite To the culture of the bourgeosie.Hello comrades. We greet you comrades:We raise our fists to the fight.
