Myers was a key figure in Black history and the labor movement during Reconstruction. In 1868, he founded the Colored Caulkers Trade Union Society, organizing Black workers to secure fair wages and workplace protections. A year later, he established the Colored National Labor Union (CNLU), serving as its first president and uniting Black workers to demand economic justice in a racially divided labor market. His efforts not only empowered African American laborers but also inspired the broader fight for equality, with Frederick Douglass succeeding him as CNLU president in 1872.#africanamericansandlabor #ASALH #isaacmyersLearn More: www.blackpast.org/african-american-history/myers-isaac-1835-1891/ ...

ASALH: Association for the Study of African American Life and History

2 weeks ago

On January 10-11, 1957, sixty Black pastors and civil rights leaders from across the South, including Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., convened in Atlanta, Georgia, to strategize coordinated efforts against racial discrimination and segregation. This meeting marked a significant step in uniting advocates of justice and equality under the principles of nonviolence. Discussions focused on empowering African Americans to challenge systemic oppression through peaceful protests and grassroots organizing. The gathering ultimately led to the formation of the Southern Christian Leadership Conference (SCLC), an influential organization that would play a central role in the civil rights movement, shaping the course of history in the fight for justice and social change.Learn More: www.blackpast.org/african-american-history/southern-christian-leadership-conference-1957/#:~:text.... ...
