Denver: Press and Education Department, IUMM&SW, 1951. 19p., staplebound pamphlet, very good. Illustrated with several cartoons depicting Black workers with one hand symbolically tied up by racism, holding them back from their full potential. "I used to think that all my troubles in this life came from being black... Now - my skin has always been black and it's going to stay black until I die. So if I thought THAT was my trouble, there could be no help for me, and no help for others like me. But I have learned different, and I started learning different when we started to build Mine-Mill in the South.

Description:
[Denver]: Press and Education Department, International Union of Mine, Mill and Smelter Workers, 1951. First Edition. 12mo. Staple-bound, pictorial paper wrappers, 19pp; illus. Fine copy. Convention address by a Black mineworker from Bessemer, Alabama. Asbury makes a passionate statement for empowerment of Black union members, arguing that an equal voice for Black workers will make the union stronger and improve conditions for all. Includes commentary on post-war housing and job discrimination, particularly in the American South. The striking cover illustration and one internal cartoon are signed in image "Jim Hulley," a labor illustrator active ca. 1930s-1960s, and for some time a staff artist for the IUMM&SW. Adequately represented in institutional holdings, but quite uncommon in commerce.
