editHi--
I am really confused by this being marked as possible copyright violation. I wrote the material myself, it is not copyrighted, and it has absolutely no relationship to the website listed as having been violated. I can't even see any cross-over of topics between the two sites.
It's also a bit unnerving to put up the text for the first time and to have two people editing and critiquing it while I'm in the middle of cleaning it up.

I searched the Sappho page again and found that she also has a tribute to Clara Fraser on her website. It appears that we both used the same non-copyrighted story from the Freedom Socialist newspaper or other obituary issued by the Freedom Socialist Party as the starting point of our essays. So there is some similarity but they are not identical.
- HGat82ndSt I do not know what to tell you. Nevertheless, if you click on the link I provided. your article is verbatim on what is posted on this article’s site. To me and 99.9% of individuals looking at copyright laws this would be considered a violation. Shoessss 22:31, 6 April 2007 (UTC)
The Freedom Socialist article which both these two essays seem use as a source is: http://www.socialism.com/fsarticles/Vol19no1/191_CF_main_story.html
The FS's use policy states:
"Articles and graphics may be reprinted with credit given to the Freedom Socialist and the writer, photographer, or artist. Notification of reproduction appreciated."
- Removed the infringement violation. My apologies “Good Sir/Madame”. Shoessss 23:05, 6 April 2007 (UTC)
NPOV
editThe article currently contains a lot of useful information, but it is written from the Freedom Socialist Party's point of view. This could be addressed by citing claims which could be controversial, and attributing opinions in the text to Fraser (or whoever), rather than giving them as fact.

Opposition to Malcolm X
editThe article is vague on this point. What was the basis for opposition to Malcolm X? --72.251.91.54 (talk) 22:03, 19 January 2009 (UTC)
