    8: Henry's First AFL Convention
    2021/11/28
    The International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers celebrates its official 130th birthday on November 28, 2021, and as we have done each year since the Henry Miller Museum opened, we commemorate the occasion by sharing a bit of our early history and thanking those good brothers and sisters whose personal contributions not only helped save the home but continue to help maintain it. 
    On this year’s episode we review Henry’s first AFL Convention as a delegate after our formation and recognize everyone’s favorite volunteer tour guide, Brother Dave Roth, Financial Secretary of Local 1 in St. Louis. Many of the images of our visiting brothers and sisters shared through the museum’s social media channels were taken by Dave. He also spends a great deal of time ensuring our museum stays in tip-top shape. Thanks Dave! 

    If you would like to join one of Dave’s tours please call the main office at (314) 647-5900 between 7am and 4:30pm CST Monday thru Friday. There is nothing more gratifying for us than to see this incredible tribute to the American Trade Union Movement put to good use. The museum often hosts an array of IBEW events for local unions from retirement celebrations to executive board meetings, please know, this is YOUR museum and an incredibly inspiring space for members to pursue the objects of our Constitution. 

    And a special thanks to University of Maryland Professor Kyle Pruitt for sharing his knowledge of labor history with us. 

    Happy Birthday IBEW!

  • 7: Who was Charles Kassel?

    7: Who was Charles Kassel?
    2020/11/28
    (Image showing leaders of the Central Trades and Labor Union preparing for their 50th anniversary "Golden Jubilee" celebration in 1937. Unfortunately, the elder Kassel did not live long enough to join his Business Manager, David Kreyling. The caption reads:  This committee of the Central Trades and Labor Union is laying plans for the organization’s golden anniversary this month. The St. Louis central labor body was chartered fifty years ago. Left to right, William M. Bryant, secretary of the Central Trades and Labor Union; Martin a Dillmon, Teamsters’ union: Della Cox, Bindery Women’s Union; David Kreyling, Cigarmakers’ Union and Joseph J. Hauser, Brewery Workers Union. Murphy and Hauser are former presidents of the Central Trades body.)
    To commemorate the 129th Anniversary of the IBEW we profile Charles Kassel, Chairman of the Organizing Committee and sometime President of the St. Louis Central Trades and Labor Union, the man who facilitated the first AFL Federal Local Union charter of the IBEW.

    Listeners can learn more about Kassel, his powerful Cigarmakers' Union, and the St. Louis Central Trades and Labor Union from Golden Jubilee Recollections, a historical summary penned in 1937 by CMIU Local 44 Business Manager and Central Trades President David Kreyling to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the coalition. Today that coalition is the St. Louis Labor Council, AFLCIO.

    Supplemental information:
    The Birmingham News, December 20, 1891, carries news of the Committee on Credentials unfavorable report on Delegate Henry Miller.

    A special thanks to Ben Blake from the George Meany Labor Archives at the University of Maryland.

    This episode is dedicated to late IBEW organizer Duane Moore, and all the devoted men and women of the Trade Union Movement who work to, elevate the moral, intellectual and social conditions of workers, their families and dependents, in the interest of a higher standard of citizenship.
    Happy 129th Anniversary IBEW!

    Thank you!
