DN! A. Philip Randolph (1\2) and the Pullman Porters
How A. Philip Randolph and the Pullman Porters Helped Pave the Way
for the Civil Rights Movement
Saturday was National Train Day. This year, Philadelphia's 30th
Street Station hosted an event honoring the Pullman porters, the
African American men who worked long hours as attendants on the
luxurious sleeper trains operated by the Pullman Company from 1868
to 1969. The Pullman porters played an important but unsung role in
the history of this country. In 1925, they formed the first black
labor union under the stewardship of A. Philip Randolph. They also
helped pave the way for the civil rights movement and are also
credited with building the black middle class in this country.
