Article title:
Executive Order 8802

Article Evaluation:
Content: I found it striking that there was no mention in the article of President Franklin D. Roosevelt’s extreme hesitancy to give the executive order. Instead, what is cited as the major motivation for Roosalvet to sign the order was that World War 2 had affected many Italian and German US citizens. The March on Washington organized by railroad union head Phillip Randolph, president of the NAACP Walter White, and president of the National Urban League T. Arnold Hill is seemingly added as an after-thought.

Tone: The overall tone appears to be biased towards President Franklin D. Roosevelt as a benevolent trailblazer of civil rights, without acknowledging that the policy was precipitated by Black leaders.

Talk Page: There appears to be extremely minimal conversation on the Talk page. The article is part of 4 Wiki-projects, and is even rated as “High Importance” in the “African diaspora” Wikiproject.

Sources: Overall, the sources seem to be reliable with working links. There is, however, a lack of sources speaking on Black organization.
