This episode delves into the Peekskill Affair of August and September 1949. This concert, held in Peekskill, New York, functioned as a fundraiser for the Civil Rights Congress, where Pete Seeger opened for the baritone-bass singer Paul Robeson. The show was rescheduled due to violence that erupted at the first attempted concert in late August, and while this second performance did happen, hundreds of Anti-Communist Veterans in Westchester County organized a violent and sorrowful attack on the concert attendees in a fascist Labor Day weekend bloodbath.
