The founding 1970 Congress meeting had about 3,000 attendees.[1]

The Congress of Afrikan people (CAP) was a

Maoist organization in the United States
from 1970 to 1980.

CAP was founded in 1970. CAP's activities illustrate the fluidity and changing nature of black radicalism in this period.[1]

In 1974, CAP became the Revolutionary Communist League (Marxist-Leninist-Mao Tse-tung Thought), led by

League of Revolutionary Struggle (Marxist-Leninist).[1] When this group split, some former CAP members joined the Freedom Road Socialist Organization.[citation needed
