Huh, his wikipedia doesn't mention his connection to the Afro-American Association, a students' group at Berkeley whose members would go on to give structure to the discipline of Black studies, propose the holiday of Kwanzaa, and help establish the Black Panther Party. However it does mention it on his ex-wife's page. They were both socialists at one point, too bad about their daughter.
