From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The National Council of (the) Arts, Sciences and Professions (NCASP or ASP) was a United States–based socialist organization of the 1950s.
The ASP sponsored the Cultural and Scientific Conference for World Peace, held at the Waldorf-Astoria hotel in New York City for three days in late March, 1949.[1] It was a controversial conference, picketed by Catholic War Veterans. W. E. B. Du Bois gave an impassioned speech on the final night.[1] The ASP asked Du Bois to represent them at the World Congress of the Partisans of Peace in Paris in April 1949.[1] Du Bois also attended, on behalf of the ASP, the All-Soviet Peace Conference in August 1949.[1]
