Not by words, but by deeds: Communists and African Americans during the Depression era

Not by words, but by deeds: Communists and African Americans during the Depression era.
Creator
Linsin, Christopher Edward., Florida Atlantic University, Goings, Kenneth W.
Abstract/Description
Historians misread the impact of Communism on working-class blacks during the Depression by focusing on membership as a measure of success. The Communist Party of the United States of America (CPUSA) sought wide influence, not wide membership. During the early 1930s the CPUSA influenced the black proletariat by advocating social equality. This advocacy distinguished the CPUSA from other black ameliorative organizations--like the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People and...
Show moreHistorians misread the impact of Communism on working-class blacks during the Depression by focusing on membership as a measure of success. The Communist Party of the United States of America (CPUSA) sought wide influence, not wide membership. During the early 1930s the CPUSA influenced the black proletariat by advocating social equality. This advocacy distinguished the CPUSA from other black ameliorative organizations--like the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People and the National Urban League--that called for only the economic and political emancipation of African Americans. By the last half of the 1930s the CPUSA, readily embracing the Kremlin's call for a Popular Front against fascism, began to work in coalitions with liberal-bourgeois agencies. This work within these moderate organizations, in addition to a moderation of the black proletariat and a movement left of black ameliorative agencies, eroded CPUSA influence in African America.

All power to the people: the Black Panther Party as the vanguard of the oppressed.
Creator
Berman, Matthew., Harriet L. Wilkes Honors College
Abstract/Description
The Black Panther Party was the most famous group born out of the Black Power Movement. Because of the group's inherent link to the Black Power Movement, and the group's slogan of "Black Power," many people, both black and white, believed, and continue to believe, that the Black Panther Party was a group with racial motives. However, this conceptualization of the Party was, and is, incorrect. While the Black Panther Party began as an outgrowth of the black civil rights movement, the Panthers...

Because of the group's inherent link to the Black Power Movement, and the group's slogan of "Black Power," many people, both black and white, believed, and continue to believe, that the Black Panther Party was a group with racial motives. However, this conceptualization of the Party was, and is, incorrect. While the Black Panther Party began as an outgrowth of the black civil rights movement, the Panthers quickly evolved into a revolutionary vanguard with a non-racial, class-oriented agenda.
