United Nations Draft Charter[edit]

Why isn't there more information about Mary McLeod Bethune helping draft the charter of the United Nations? As a crucial point in international politics after World War II, I believe there should be at least subheading within the general article, as well as links to more information. 2601:589:8401:C980:641B:2229:C35E:348F (talk) 19:23, 22 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
