Abstract:
In 1945, Mary Price organized the Committee of North Carolina (CNC) of the Southern Conference from Human Welfare. The CNC was a liberal, mixed-gender organization that included Communist sympathizers but was not connected to the Communist Party USA. Under Price's leadership, the CNC became the core of the Progressive Party in North Carolina. Price's role in the CNC served as an example for the participation in liberal politics of women in North Carolina.
