This isn't right - the CP didn't take over the NNC until later - A. Philip Randolph, a committed anti-communist, was involved for a while. This needs a big fix.

@MCrookston1018: You should have posted this notice weeks ago. Don't be surprised when you get reverted. Chris Troutman (talk) 01:37, 14 December 2014 (UTC)Reply

Plagiarism edit

To editor MCrookston1018: To editor Mightyevert27: You took large portions of text from blackpast.org among others. You had better fix it quickly before I have this article reverted. @Tobyhigbie: Chris Troutman (talk) 23:26, 15 December 2014 (UTC)Reply

Correction: this article had copyrighted content before this class started, although I can't pinpoint exactly who added what when. I'd recommend re-writing the whole thing in your own words while correcting and updating content to ensure there's no similarity to the source material.

Needs editing for sense and style edit

Heavy going with lots of communist jargon, also incorrect English. Please edit with a consideration of general readers. More sources should be consulted; the movement was well documented.Parkwells (talk) 22:00, 2 February 2015 (UTC)Reply
