I think there should be information on this page about her position as chair of the National Women's Commission of the Communist Party, which she accepted in 1947. While in this position she formulated her theory about the triple oppression of Black women. Her work for women's rights was a significant part of her life, through which she made an important theoretical contribution to feminist thought. She is often not given credit for her work around women and I think it's important to have it in her biography on Wikipedia. See the article in Political Affairs linked at the bottom of this article, or see Red Feminism by Kate Weigand (The John Hopkins University Press, Baltimore: 2001), especially chapter 5.
