Included in the effort were like-minded allies in organized labor. This presentation will review the history of the Civil Rights Movement, its nonviolent resistance and civil disobedience campaigns, legislative gains, and the participation of unions as a type of training ground for black leadership. Specifically, A. Philip Randolph, founder of the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters, will be discussed.
