The only institution in this society whose economic programs coincides with the needs of the civil rights movement is the labor movement. Full and fair employment. a higher minimum wage. housing subsidies and democratic economic planning are the answers to Negro impoverishmentand let me add. to white impoverishment as well. They are the basic plans of the AFLCIO economic program. The American Federation of Teachers is vigorously organizing Negroes. The AFLCIO has guaranteed the funds needed to organize the migrant laborer. and the Industrial Union Department has opened community grievance offices in Chicago to help Dr. Martin Luther King organize. Labors fight for the repeal of 14(b) will help the Negro.
