Résumé
The Forgotten Workforce: A History of African American Labor and the Fight for EquityThe Forgotten Workforce takes readers on a compelling journey through the often-overlooked history of African American labor and the systemic challenges that have hindered economic equity for Black workers. From the thriving days of African Americans in skilled trades and manufacturing to the devastating effects of policies like mass incarceration and the decline of vocational education, this book uncovers the untold stories of Black workers who helped build America's most important industries.
Through a combination of historical insight, cultural analysis, and practical solutions, The Forgotten Workforce explores:The contributions of African Americans in industries like auto manufacturing, construction, and electronics. The impact of globalization and the outsourcing of jobs on Black communities. How the War on Drugs and mass incarceration created lasting economic and social barriers for Black families.
The decline of vocational education and the consequences for career-readiness among African American youth. The challenges of racial and economic disparities in the workforce and the erosion of opportunities for Black men in skilled trades. But the book doesn't stop at presenting challenges. It offers actionable strategies to rebuild African American communities and empower the next generation through:The revitalization of trades education in schools and prisons.
The importance of apprenticeship programs and union participation. Inspiring case studies of Black entrepreneurship in skilled trades. Policy recommendations for increasing equity and access to job opportunities. This book is a vital resource for educators, policymakers, activists, and anyone seeking to understand the deep roots of labor inequality in America. It's a powerful call to action to support systemic change and create lasting economic opportunities for African American workers.
The Forgotten Workforce is a must-read for anyone interested in labor history, social justice, and the fight for economic equality in modern America.
