Bayard Rustin was an African American Trade Unionist and Civil Rights leader. He spent his adult life fighting for rights and
equality for all people and being a powerful voice for those who were unable to speak for themselves. As many of our great
leaders, he was threatened, beaten, and jailed fighting for freedom. He was also silenced, ostracized and terminated from
leadership positions for being openly gay. Rustin worked tirelessly with liberal, labor, religious, business and education coalitions
in the support of civil and human rights legislation. Rustin aided in the push for desegregation of public schools and in higher education institutions.
ASASP salutes Bayard Rustin for his dedication toward improving the lives of working families. We are especially proud of his efforts to insist African Americans be hired as instructors and administrators in the public school system following the passage
of Brown vs. Board of Education legislation.
