During the 1930s, the Communist Party and organized labor played a significant role in radicalizing Black Americans by advocating for civil rights and social justice, often linking racial and economic struggles. The Communist Party actively recruited Black members and supported anti-racist initiatives, providing a platform for Black activists to address issues of inequality. Labor unions, particularly those aligned with the Communist Party, worked to include Black workers in their ranks, emphasizing the importance of solidarity across racial lines. This collaboration helped to foster a sense of collective identity and empowerment among Black Americans, contributing to the broader civil rights movement.

John L. Lewis organized the first major industrial union in the United States when he organized the CIO. (Congress of Industrial Organization) The industrial concept was used in the 1930s and 40s to organize General Motors, United States Steel, and Ford Motor Company. The idea of industrial unionism was the reason for the original break from the AFL, which organized by craft, hence, a Craft Union.
