This paper is an analytical history of a New York City community organization during a period of economic, racial and ideological turmoil. The organization was committed to integration, provided a wide range of services, and organized residents to address community problems. I examine the role of women in the organization, the organization's opposition to Black Nationalism and its effort to analyze and organize against the austerity resolution to the NYC fiscal crisis. I suggest that a modified model of the organization's political economic perspective and interculturalism may be considered as a possible framework for a broad-based social movement for change
