After all, they kept Paul Robeson in by simply pulling his passport, no wall needed.

I don't need to go to Wikipedia to read about Robeson. Guy became a Stalin fan and crumbled mentally when he realised the USSR was not what it claimed. Great singer though.

    I think part of what they didn't like was that in Old Man River, instead of singing:

      Git a little drunk
  An' you lands in jail

    for Moscow audiences he sang:

      Show a little grit
  And you land in jail
