A. Philip Randolph [EPUB ebook] 
A Life in the Vanguard

Sokongan

Before the emergence of Reverend Martin Luther King, Jr., there were several key leaders who fought for civil rights in the United States. Among them was A. Philip Randolph, who perhaps best embodied the hopes, ideals, and aspirations of black Americans. Born in the South at the start of the Jim Crow era, Randolph was by his thirtieth birthday a prime mover in the movement to expand civil, social, and economic rights in America. A Socialist and a radical, Randolph devoted his life to energizing the black masses into collective action. He successfully organized the all-black Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters and led the March on Washington Movement during the Second World War. In this engaging new book, historian Andrew E. Kersten explores Randolphs significant influences and accomplishments as both a labor and civil rights leader. Kersten pays particular attention to Randolphs political philosophy, his involvement in the labor and civil rights movements, and his dedication to improving the lives of American workers.
