The Six Triple Eight, officially known as the 6888 The Six Triple Eight, officially known as the 6888th Central Postal Directory Battalion, was the only all-Black, all-female battalion to serve overseas during World War II. Established in 1945, they were tasked with sorting and delivering millions of pieces of mail that had been delayed due to the war, ensuring that letters and packages reached soldiers on the front lines. The battalion, which faced racial and gender discrimination, became an enduring symbol of resilience, breaking barriers for African American women in the military and contributing significantly to the war effort. Their successful completion of the mission, despite the many obstacles they faced, played a pivotal role in boosting morale among soldiers and exemplified the critical role of women of color in wartime labor. The contributions of the Six Triple Eight to the labor movement extend beyond their military service. By defying the gender and racial norms of the time, the battalion not only demonstrated the capabilities of Black women in a professional and technical capacity but also helped shift public perception about their roles in the workforce. Their efforts laid the groundwork for future generations of Black women to enter more diverse fields, particularly in roles traditionally dominated by white men. The battalion’s legacy is a testament to the intersection of labor, race, and gender in the broader struggle for civil rights and equality in the workplace. #ASALH #AfricanAmericansAndLabor #6888thcentralpostaldirectorybattalion #SixTripleEight

On this day, March 7, 1965, “Bloody Sunday” sh On this day, March 7, 1965, “Bloody Sunday” shocked the nation—what happened on the Edmund Pettus Bridge, and how did Amelia Boynton Robinson play a pivotal role in this historic event? “Bloody Sunday” occurred when hundreds of peaceful demonstrators attempted to march from Selma to Montgomery, Alabama, to demand voting rights for Black Americans. As they crossed the Edmund Pettus Bridge, they were brutally attacked by state troopers and sheriff’s deputies using clubs, tear gas, and whips. The violent assault, broadcast across the country, outraged Americans and fueled support for the Civil Rights Movement. Among the marchers was Amelia Boynton Robinson, a longtime voting rights activist and one of the march’s key organizers. She was beaten unconscious, and a haunting photograph of her lying on the ground became one of the most powerful images of the movement. Boynton Robinson had spent years fighting for Black suffrage, even running for Congress in 1964 as the first Black woman to do so in Alabama. Her courage and sacrifice helped lead to the passage of the Voting Rights Act of 1965, a landmark law that dismantled many barriers to Black voter registration. Amelia Boynton Robinson’s legacy continues to inspire the ongoing fight for justice and democracy.
