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.

Educational assignment[edit]

I am in the process of adding more material to this article for my American Working Class Movements class MCrookston1018 (talk) 01:03, 14 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

@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]
