Everything about Gus Tyler totally explained
Gus Tyler (born
1912) began his career as the chairman of the
Young People's Socialist League, the youth section of the
Socialist Party of America, in the early
1930s, making him a key leader in the party's faction fight of that period. After his "militants" won out in
1934, Tyler and many of his comrades were offered staff jobs with the
International Ladies Garment Workers Union (ILGWU) led by
David Dubinsky, a stalwart of the rival "old guard". This co-option appears to have been key to drawing the militants away from their early pro-Communist tendencies to become later some of the leading stalwarts of
anticommunist liberalism during the
Cold War. Tyler stayed on with the ILGWU for many years and became a leading labor intellectual, writing prolifically and eventually becoming a mainstream liberal syndicated columnist. He continues to write a regular column for
The Forward.
