This chapter focuses on three journals that expressed anti-colonial ideas as Old Left became New: Political Affairs, Freedom, and The Crisis. The anti-colonial front put forward materialist critiques of the contradictions of imperialism as a system of racial and class domination that organized life not only in Europe and its empires but also within the United States and the territories over which it held sway. W.E.B. Du Bois was a frequent contributor, as were Alphaeus Hunton and Eslanda Goode Robeson, all of whom trained their considerable intellectual acuity on the historical roots and postwar manifestations of gendered racial capitalism Given the very public, acrimonious, and final postwar separation between the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) and all political entities traveling within or alongside the Communist Party, The Crisis might at first seem a surprising place in which to find any resonance of the anti-colonial positions put forward in Political Affairs and Freedom.
