There is one important fact that many people fail to point out about the blacklist. The group that did the blacklisting was the Hollywood producers, because it was bad for business. The American people despised communism.
The Hollywood Ten also went to jail if I remember correctly, for contempt of court, not for being communists, or taking the fifth.
God bless Kazan. Im sure he arrived in heaven to a standing ovation.

Correct me if I am wrong, but wasn't Kazan a defector from communism, much like Whittaker Chambers? I know that one of his staunch defenders has been the actress Irene Dunne.
