"What top redhead television comedienne has been confronted with her membership in the Communist Party?" Despite Lucy's claim that upon hearing this Walter Winchell blind item on September 6, 1953, she says (in the book Love, Lucy) "I remember thinking, 'Oh my gosh, do they think Imogene Coca is a communist?'"; Lucy was just interviewed by HUAC two days before. How could she not know they were talking about her? In the movie, Being The Ricardos, she did seem to know right away and it was Desi who suggested that they could be referring to Imogene. In Kathleen Brady's book, it is Howard Strikling who suggests they could be referring to Imogene, to which Lucy takes offense. Granted, Imogene Coca was as much a household name as Lucille Ball and Desi Arnaz at the time. Lucy knew. Fortunately, Imogene Coca (1908-2001), a lifelong Democrat, was never in the cross hairs of the HUAC investigations. Your Show Of Shows, which was immensely popular from 1950 to 1954, won the Emmy for Outstanding Variety Series in 1952 and 1953. The 90-minute show was aired live on NBC every Saturday night in prime time. She won the second-ever Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Lead Actress in a Comedy Series in 1951 and was nominated for four other Emmys for her work in the show. She won a 1953 Peabody Award for excellence in broadcasting. Her success in that program earned her her own series, The Imogene Coca Show, which ran 1954-55. In 1995, Coca was honored with the second annual Women In Film Lucy Award, honoring women's achievement in television and named after Lucille Ball. #lucilleball #imogenecoca #ilovelucy #redscare #beingthericardos #desiarnaz #williamfrawley #peabodyawards #emmyawards #red #comedienne #redhead https://www.instagram.com/p/CYCdlOwvafE/?utm_medium=tumblr

DAMN SON I haven't had any experiences like that/it hasn't been nearly as intense but I hope you're okay with it?????? like I hope you aren't too spooked about it or anything

I'm usually ok with. Just once in a while it startles me (like what happened on the stairs) but this is really creepy to me lmao. and I hate our basements and literally won't go down in them unless I absolutely have to and I would never be able to go down there in the dark alone... hahahaha like 3 people were murdered down there and my house was apart of the underground railroad...

this was their last stop before crossing over into canada (well not literally my house only i just mean the area)

but i'm like a sensitive basically which means I am much more open to experiencing the paranormal and stuff like that. I'm just happy I'm not like my mom. She's pretty much a (untrained) psychic medium. lmao

but like my house was built somewhere between 1798 and 1803 we think it was built in either 1801 or 1802 though on what was called "the great plot" and it has been just about everything and anything you can think of LOL from a family home (that's what it was built as by wealthier people) to a make-shift war of 1812 hospital, to a doctors office, hotel, boarding house, apartments, etc. Oh and a woman also owned this in the 1850s and she lived and worked here. She did laundry. She was murdered in the parlor! Some guy robbed & and killed her.

mix that with generalization of normal death, diseases that broke out, the horrible winters tha tpeople froze to death in and of course the fact this was native american land....

haahhaa there is a reason why there's an entire book series based on the area I live in :)))
