On October 20, 1947, the Committee on Un-American Activities of the US House of Representatives (created in 1934 with the purpose of exposing people sympathizing with communism and promoting its ideas; practically did not function during the war) began public hearings in Washington on un-American activities in Hollywood. Over 40 leading Hollywood figures were heard. The status of the Commission was of an extrajudicial nature. The man who appeared before her had to prove his innocence himself. There were no accused - everyone was called witnesses. It was supposed to hear 24 “friendly” and 19 “unfriendly” witnesses (of the latter, only 11 were questioned, and 10 people refused to answer questions). One of the “friendly” was the writer Ayn Rand (Alice Rosenbaum, 1905-1982). This file contains her testimony regarding the film “Song of Russia”, which was accused (for more information about the film, director, etc., see: htm). These testimonies became the first public anti-communist speech of Ayn Rand, who later became a recognized prophet of anti-socialism and anti-communism in the United States and had a strong influence on the American (and not only) establishment with her books.The text of the book was translated from the original language using an artificial intelligence program. For the most part, the translation of the text is of very high quality, but in some cases, due to the imperfection of the technology, there may be incorrect phrase translations in the text, as well as single words and expressions may not be translated.
