Investigation of Communist Activities in the Buffalo, N.Y., Area. Hearings

This is Part 1 of the official record of hearings conducted in 1956 by the House Committee on Un-American Activities (HUAC) regarding alleged communist activities in the Buffalo, New York, area. The hearings, part of a broader effort during the Cold War era, sought to investigate and expose individuals and organizations suspected of having ties to the Communist Party.

The testimony and evidence presented offer a glimpse into the social and political climate of the time, reflecting concerns about internal subversion and the perceived threat of communist infiltration. This primary source document is invaluable for researchers and students interested in American history, the Cold War, political science, and the history of anti-communist movements in the United States.
