Letter to Walter P. Reuther from Douglas Fraser about DRUM
Description
Despite DRUM’s upstart status, its militant stance on race in the auto factories and criticisms of union leadership quickly caught the attention of Walter Reuther and the UAW. DRUM claimed the UAW did not care about the plight of its Black members, while the union worried that the wildcat strikes weakened their ability to negotiate with employers.
