Talk:1935 New York anti-lynching exhibitions

Vanguard Group?
, I'm not sure, but I don't think the link to the Vanguard Group is right here. According to Marlene Park (page 363), the "Vanguard" group involved was that started by Louise Thompson and Augusta Savage – see here for a description. What to do? Justlettersandnumbers (talk) 10:51, 3 June 2023 (UTC)
 * Hey Justlettersandnumbers--thanks. I can't see what's behind those links, but I do have Apel's book here on my desk. She confirms it's indeed the group started by Thompson and Savage. So I guess there were two groups, both communist, of the same name? Drmies (talk) 13:06, 4 June 2023 (UTC)
 * Well, yes, that's my question, really – it seems so improbable, so much more likely that they'd be one and the same. The Vanguard Group page is based entirely on one source, and I can find no mention of either (Louise) Thompson or Savage in that. The two groups seem to have had a rather different ethnic scope too, one apparently at least partly Jewish, the other definitely black American.

 * Plus there's Harlem vs. Bronx. I think we have some work to do here. Thanks, Drmies (talk) 13:43, 4 June 2023 (UTC)
