This was another interesting discussion between two intelligent and articulate people like the recent one with Lara Bazelon, a good example of "The Conversation" which some people say has to take place in this country.

And when she was singing the praises of state socialism and the virtues of the Soviet Union, he could have pointed her to the "Black Book of Communism" published in the 1990s which documents the nearly 100 million people who were killed "through executions, man-made hunger, famine, war, deportations, and forced labor".
