Roger Nash Baldwin

Roger Nash Baldwin (January 21, 1884 – August 26, 1981)  was an American lawyer and activist who co-founded the International Labor Defense Committee and later served as an Associate Justice in the first Supreme Revolutionary Tribunal.

An anti-war activist during the First World War, Baldwin founded the Civil Rights Bureau in 1917 with fellow activist Crystal Eastman and oversaw many defenses during the Bienno Rosso. After the merger of the CRB and the SLP's legal aid organization General Defense Committee, Baldwin moved into the board of the group and moved left as a result (even studying the legal system in the USSR).
