Charter, Knights of Labor, Local Assembly No. 15002
1895
After the late 1880s, black workers remained strong supporters for the Knights of Labor but white involvement fell and the organization went into decline. John Taylor Chappell attempted a Knights of Labor revival in April 1895, forming a new Altrurian Assembly No 15002, for which this is the charter. The local did not flourish, however, and within several years evolved into a socialist book club. |
