Cinema Program Free Screening of "Inside Red China"
A film documenting young Americans touring China defying the US State Department's "travel ban".
In 1957 US Army veteran Robert Carl Cohen, while studying for the Doctorate in Social Psychology at the Sorbonne, was assigned by NBC-TV's Moscow Chief Irving R. Levine to film a group of young Americans touring China in defiance of US Secretary of State John Foster Dulles' travel ban. Arriving in Beijing after a 9 day 6,000 mile trip on the Trans-Siberian Railway, he convinced the Chinese Foreign Ministry to permit him to air express his uncensored films via Moscow to NBC in New York, where they were featured on the Today Show & The Chet Huntley news. (45 min.)
Robert Cohen is among those interviewed for the China Watching segment of the USC U.S.-China Insstitute’s Assignment:China series. Click here to watch it.
