Dubois declared, ‘Probably the greatest and most effective effort toward interracial understanding among the working masses has come about through…the organization of the CIO (Congress of Industrial Organizations) in 1935.’ Yet the CIO's role in shaping race relations and patterns of interracial inequality has been largely overlooked by contemporary scholars of race. Drawing from an ongoing research program on the relative effects of the CIO versus the AFL (American Federation of Labor) on interracial inequality during the 1940s, we discuss implications for the role of unions today and into the future. Findings for the CIO era challenge widespread notions about the connection between the ‘demand for labor’ and interracial inequality. Comparing recent developments in the economy and labor movement with those of the CIO era, we argue that a new form of interracial working-class movement may be emerging, a movement that, if positively linked to continued struggles for racial justice and equality, could make a profound difference for race relations and ‘color lines’ in the twenty-first century.

It was Che who led the guerrillas' victorious two-year campaign against 40,000 U.S.-equipped troops supported by formidable air and naval power.

This debate represents a historical problem in the American Marxist movement. Many different progressive and revolutionary movements in American history were never able to overcome racial differences to create class unity in key historic class struggles. Arguably the two most important strike waves in working class American history, 1877 and 1919, ended in defeats. Intra-racial fighting was a central problem that helped lay the ground work for the defeats of the strike. Eugene Debs, one of American labors great socialist leaders once openly stated, “We see it as a class issue rather than a race issue.” Debs colorblind socialism differed with racial theorist WEB Dubois who remarked in that same time period; “That the white heel is still on the black neck is simply proof that the world is not yet civilized. The history of the ...

Torna-se importante, discorrer sobre a evolução e expansão do Terceiro Setor, surgindo entidades e organizações dedicadas ao trabalho de promoção humana e social. A entidade deve aplicar seus recursos no objeto social a que se destina, essa é a grande característica das entidades sem fins lucrativos. As questões sociais são integrantes do Terceiro Setor, desenvolvendo pelo Brasil diversas atividades de cunho social. Pretende-se apresentar a legislação no que diz respeito a remuneração de dirigentes estatutários e não estatutários das organizações do Terceiro Setor de assistência social, com a premissa de discorrer a atuação de entidades que atuam no setor social. A inovação legislativa é também objeto de estudo no que tange a imunidade tributária em sua percepção constitucional. Palavra chave: Remuneração de dirigentes; organizações da sociedade civil; terceiro setor.

Those who were securely employed both before and since the revolution were less likely to be revolutionary than those who were employed more regularly since the revolution. Negroes were more likely than whites to support the revolution, even with pre-revolutionary employment status and change in employment status controlled.
