Loyalties: A Son's Memoir is a memoir by journalist Carl Bernstein, published in 1989. The book is an account of his family's experience during the McCarthy era in the 1940s and 1950s. Bernstein's parents Sylvia and Alfred, both members of the American Communist Party, were called to testify before the House Un-American Activities Committee (HUAC) and the Senate Subcommittee on Internal Security in the 1950s and were under FBI surveillance for four decades.
