Labor History Society. It was created by James D. Brown, Jr. in cooperation
with metro Chicago area teachers and local union members.

organization with a mission to preserve and promote awareness of labor
history in Illinois. ILHS is staffed by volunteers. This project is also
produced by volunteers and one graduate intern. The HTML version is
maintained by Chicago-Kent College of Law.
Workday
Minnesota is the latest development in a long-term communications partnership
between the
Labor Education Service, University of Minnesota, and the working people
of the state represented by the
Minnesota
AFL-CIO. Workday Minnesota does not reflect the views of any institution
or organization but rather seeks to be a news and information source that
combines journalistic ethics and practices with a focus on the lives and
concerns of working people. Our admitted bias is that we present the world of
events and issues through the prism of social and economic justice and the
dignity of work. We offer Workday Minnesota as an alternative to the world of
corporate-dominated media.

people.

U.S. Department of Labor

The
Congress of South African Trade Unions was founded in 1985 after four
years of unity talks between unions opposed to apartheid and committed to a
non-racial, non-sexist and democratic South Africa. Since then COSATU
has been in the forefront of the struggle for democracy and workers' rights.

The
American Federation of Labor and Congress of Industrial Organizations
(AFL-CIO) is a voluntary federation of 65 national and international
labor unions. Today's unions represent 13 million working women and men of
every race and ethnicity and from every walk of life. We are teachers and
teamsters, musicians and miners, firefighters and farm workers, bakers and
bottlers, engineers and editors, pilots and public employees, doctors and
nurses, painters and laborers—and more.
Founded in 1987,
Jobs With Justice (JwJ)
proclaims a mission is to improve working people's standard of living, fight
for job security, and protect workers' right to organize. JwJ's core belief
is that in order to be successful, workers' rights struggles have to be part
of a larger campaign for economic and social justice. To that end, JwJ has
created a network of local coalitions that connect labor, faith-based,
community, and student organizations to work together on workplace and
community social justice campaigns.
