Paul was a very interesting man and could have succeeded even more in life if the communism issues did not strike. He was multilingual, a great actor who traveled everywhere and broke the color barrier in acting. He was one of the first African Americans to play roles that would be more for white men and he also he had a play that was the longest running in history. Because of his passport being taken away from him he couldn't travel to act and was given a bad name. Just now his accomplishments are being shown because back then he was being discriminated for what happened to him. He is a lost part of important history.
