  • Harvey Goldberg Lectures! Marxism and History Religion & Revolution: Martin Luther & Thomas Müntzer. March 2 and 4, 1977.
    Thanks to the Brecht Forum Archive (brechtforum.org/harvey-goldber...) for all the available audio of Harvey Goldberg's lectures.
    From wiki: Harvey Goldberg (March 13, 1922, Orange, New Jersey - May 20, 1987, Madison, Wisconsin) was a teacher, historian and political activist.
    For thousands of students, Harvey Goldberg was the greatest teacher of their lives. In an era when an average professor might receive a round of polite applause on the last day of the semester, Goldberg got an ovation at the end of every lecture.
    His career as a lecturer began early. "I was just barely 23 when I began to talk and I've been talking ever since," he told an interviewer in 1977. His first lecture was before an ancient history class, when one of his professors "pulled me out of the corridor and into 272 Bascom. After that, everything was an anti-climax."[3]
    James K. Sunshine, a 1949 Oberlin graduate recalled that "After the war, a charismatic young history professor named Harvey Goldberg arrived and astonished his classes and much of the campus with incandescent lectures on European economic history. With the Cold War and the civil rights movement heating up, political liberalism and race relations began to dominate conversation, and Goldberg became a leading speaker at “Arch 7” mass meetings held after supper on the steps of the Memorial Arch to protest the latest iniquity in Washington, DC."[4]
