John Dewey and other members of the inquiry commission sit at the panel table, surrounded by journalists, photographers and cameramen covering the hearing. Chaired by American philosopher John Dewey, the International Commission of Inquiry into the Charges Made Against Trotsky in the Moscow Trials convened in Coyoacán in April 1937, giving Trotsky the opportunity to publicly defend himself against Stalin's accusations. The commission, which included American intellectuals and writers, ultimately concluded that the Moscow trials had been fabricated. The sessions drew international attention and turned Trotsky's Mexican exile into a stage of world politics.
