During Black History Month, we’re recognizing historical moments and crucial contributions of Black individuals in honor of the theme African Americans and Labor.
The Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters (BSCP) was founded in 1925 as the first African American labor union to be chartered by the American Federation of Labor (AFL). It was established to improve the working conditions, wages, and dignity of Black railroad porters, and gathered membership of 18,000 workers across Canada, Mexico, and the United States at its peak.
The BSCP, under the leadership of A. Philip Randolph, faced significant challenges, including discrimination and resistance from both railroad companies and the wider labor movement. Despite these obstacles, the union gained recognition in 1937 after a prolonged struggle via a signed contract with The Pullman Company, securing better working conditions, pay, and union rights for its members.
The BSCP played a crucial role in the broader Civil Rights Movement by challenging racial injustice and helping to lay the foundation for future labor and civil rights advances.
