Between 1919 and the late 1950s, the Communist Party of the United States of America (CP-USA) engaged in a wide variety of challenges directed against the U.S. government and its economic system. Because of this, many aspects of the organization became well known to the American public. Indeed, in their day, the names of the organizational leadership (i.e., William Foster, Earl Browder and Eugene Dennis) were as popular as any at the time. Bent on dramatically transforming US political-economic relations, the Party attempted to raise awareness regarding the evils of the American political-economic system and engage in numerous struggles against it. The activities put forth toward these ends were as numerous as they were varied, from editorials to unionization to political campaigns to mass protests"-- $c Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a African Americans $x History $x History $y 20th century. 650 0 $a Black militant organizations $z United States $x History $y 20th century. 650 0 $a Social movements $z United States $x History $y 20th century. 830 0 $a Cambridge studies in contentious politics. 941 $a 3 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20191213020738.0 952 $l USUX851 $d 20160826104621.0 952 $l OIAX792 $d 20160331010934.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=F821D8A6F70511E582760BA0DAD10320Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
