Historical Note
The national A. Philip Randolph Institute was co-founded in 1965 by A. Philip Randolph and Bayard Rustin, in 1965 to forge an alliance between the civil rights movement and the labor movement. APRI is now an American Federation of Labor-Congress of Industrial Organizations constituency group, representing black trade unionists within the AFL-CIO. APRI-Seattle Chapter is dedicated to developing programs that will "extend democracy to those who have been traditionally disfranchised or discouraged from participating in the political system, strengthening political alliances needed to assure democratic social change and projecting social and economic programs that will improve the lives of all Americans."
Content Description
This collection contains the office files of the Seattle chapter of the A. Philip Randolph Institute. The bulk of the materials are financial records, meeting minutes, and materials related to planning the chapter's annual awards banquet. There is also material related to other events hosted or supported by the Seattle chapter and various voter drive projects. In addition, there is a small collection of news articles and publications related to the local labor movement. This collection would be of particular interest to researchers interested in the general functions of local AFL-CIO constituency organizations and African Americans in the labor movement.
