194068113Springfield: Negro Youth Improvement League 1940. Paperback. Very Good. 11p. Wrapper. 16cm. The Negro Youth Improvement League is identified in this pamphlet as ". composed of young Negro men and women of Springfield who feel that they have suffered certain social injustices long enough." This uncommon pamphlet attacks the Dunbar Community League claiming that it is elitist refuses to hire local African Americans and disproportionately emphasizes support for Camp Atwater although only 10-15% of its campers are from Springfield.The Dunbar Community League was headed by William Nelson DeBerry a nationally prominent African American cleric who had been pastor of St. John's Congregational Church in Springfield. The Dunbar Community League established around 1930 to take over activities started by DeBerry's church changed its name to Urban League of Springfield Inc. in 1950. Camp Atwater appears to still operate identifying itself online the oldest African American camp in the USA. and as owned and operated by the Urban League of Springfield Mass. We don't know if the complaints in this pamphlet had any effect on the operations and activities of the Dunbar Community League but the pamphlet appears to have been an honest effort by interested youth to make sure that their needs were not being ignaored.

140939269Detroit: Negro Retail Store Employees Association / The Inner City Organizing Committee. Broadside. Very Good. ca. 1940-1960. Single sheet measuring 9-7/8" x 10 printed on recto only. Top edge rough cut perhaps as issued or with blank margin partially missing. Moderately toned and with a faint vertical crease down the center. Beginning in the 1930s the Don't Buy Where You Can't Work campaign sprung up in northern American cities with black community members protesting against discriminatory hiring practices of targeted white-owned businesses. Such businesses would typically be picketed in order to increase job opportunities and harness the economic power of the community to affect change. This broadside appears to be boycotting three Sears locations in the Detroit area which had "75% negro patronage and less than 10% negro employees in lower paying jobs." Locally this movement was supported by the Detroit Housewives' League activist African American housewives who tirelessly worked to promote black-owned businesses and in turn increase employment opportunities for black workers.

196613499San Francisco: Global Views 1966. The final issue of this short-lived theoretical journal of the Negro National Liberation Study Group NNLSG which published “news and commentary on the international anti-imperialist movement.†It appears as though eight issues were published monthly between May-December 1966. Almost nothing is available on the journal or the NNLSG at least under that name although the Labadie record states that in 1967 Global Views merged with Black Marketer and Burning Spear the newsletter of Omali Yeshitela’s JOMO Junta of Militant Organizations to form Black Power which was the journal of House of Umoja and the Black Panther Party Northern California two groups formed by RAM members and Soulbook editors Ken Freeman and Ernie Allen. <br /> <br /> Content for this issue includes an article titled “The Ideology of Surrender: In Refutation of the Reactionary ‘Mainstream’ Theory by Carl T. Rowan†in which Rowan is described as an “ideologist of the black bourgeois clique†for attacking Black Power as a separatist movement. This article is followed by an expanded version of an article on “Monopoly Capital†printed in issue 2 of Global Views includes six new appendices. The issue concludes with an editorial and excerpts from Dr. Ira S. Cohen’s address before the Commonwealth Club on U.S. imperialism’s drive to rule the world. <br /> <br /> Side-stapled mimeographed sheets 11†x 8 ½†26 p. Some toning to covers else a fine copy.

Creases at folds; chemise moderately worn; leaves lightly dust-soiled with one small stain. APPLICATION TO CHARTER AN AFRICAN AMERICAN NON-PROFIT BUSINESS ASSOCIATION. IT WAS CREATED IN RESPONSE TO JIM CROW LAWS THAT REMAINED IN FORCE IN WESTERN PENNSYLVANIA AND ELSEWHERE. THIS SCARCE PRIMARY SOURCE MATERIAL DOCUMENTS THE NEEDS OF AFRICAN AMERICAN BUSINESS OWNERS TO UNITE IN ORDER TO SURVIVE. <br /> <br /> Our charter shows that the "Negro Licensed Beverage Association of Western Pennsylvania" NLBAWP was a group of African American hotel owners restaurant owners and tavern owners. Lingering Jim Crow laws and other societal forces made it exceptionally difficult for such businesses to succeed in the Pittsburgh area and of course elsewhere. The late 1950s and early 1960s saw the development of similar organizations in Philadelphia National Negro Licensed Beverage Association and New Orleans Negro Tavern Owners Association. <br /> <br /> Importantly this document lists the goals of the NLBAWP organization:<br /> <br /> "To foster strengthen and improve business within the Negro community." <br /> "To advance the cause of the Negro tavern and hotel owner as a whole." <br /> "To give service to members to do things for them which they cannot do for themselves or which can be done better or less expensively if done collectively." <br /> "To create and project the proper image of a tavern or hotel owner in the community." <br /> "To sponsor aid and assist any charitable or civic project approved by the members."<br /> <br /> One noteworthy incorporator listed here was Vivian Mason Lane. Lane owned four Pittsburgh taverns in the 1960s and was a community leader through at least the 1980s. She led a neighborhood Chamber of Commerce and ran unsuccessfully for County Commissioner and the State House.<br /> <br /> The 1966-67 Negro Traveler's Green Book "For Vacation Without Aggravation!" lists a grand total of eight suitable motels tourist homes and restaurants in Pittsburgh. In any event we have been unable to determine what -- if anything -- became of the Negro Licensed Beverage Association of Western Pennsylvania. Shields, Watson & Washington, Attorneys at Law unknown
