  • Conrad Lynn Reads Commentary: From Postwar Liberalism to the New Right

    Conrad Lynn was a noted Civil Rights attorney. Starting his legal practice in the 1930s, he was intimately involved in the struggle for justice and equality for over fifty years. Lynn successfully defended many civil rights cases, notably that of the Harlem 6 and the Black Panthers, NAACP leader Robert Williams, and Don Pedro Albizu Campos, Lolita Lebron and other Puerto Rican Independent Leaders falsely accused of federal conspiracy. Here, Lynn reads Commentary magazine—a publication established by the American Jewish Committee immediately after the Second World War. In this show, Lynn emphasizes the magazine’s transformation from an originally leftist publication that allegedly encouraged “original, creative endeavors” into a flagship of neo-conservatism.
