Black History is American History, yet it often isn't treated that way. Join me in discussions about this misunderstood and ignored history with experts and friends. If you believe that America cannot address its present and move forward without understanding its history and Black people's role in it, you've found the right podcast! New episodes every 15th (and sometimes) 30th! Website: https://wetheblackpeople.captivate.fm/

<p>I'm done making We the (Black) People because my heart hasn't been in it for a minute, which makes the show quality decline.

<p>Generally, I like to talk about labor sometime around May Day. This year, we're talking about a place that has employed a lot of Black people over the last 150 years or so but has not always shown us a lot of love: the post office. For decades, Black people were not even legally allowed to work at the post office, then Black people had to fight in the workplace and inside unions for equality. This episode, we're going to look at the struggle all the way up to the largest illegal (also called wildcat) strike in American history in 1970. I'll talk through that history with Professor Philip Rubio, author of <em>There's Always Work at the Post Office: African American Postal Workers and the Fight for Jobs Justice and Equity</em>. Happy belated May Day!</p><p>Music Credit</p><p>PeaceLoveSoul by Jeris (c) copyright 2012 Licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution (3.0) license. http://dig.ccmixter.org/files/VJ_Memes/35859 Ft: KungFu (KungFuFrijters)</p>
