520    The story of the organizing of the first black trade union
       - The Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters - provides an 
       account of African American working life between the Civil
       War and World War II. Miles of Smiles chronicles the 
       organizing of the first black trade union - the 
       Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters. This inspiring story 
       of the Pullman porters provides one of the few accounts of
       African American working life between the Civil War and 
       World War II. Miles of Smiles describes the harsh 
       discrimination which lay behind the porters' smiling 
       service. Narrator Rosina Tucker, a 100 year old union 
       organizer and porter's widow, describes how after a 12 
       year struggle led by A. Philip Randolph, the porters won 
       the first contract ever negotiated with black workers. 
       Miles of Smiles both recovers an important chapter in the 
       emergence of black America and reveals a key source of the
       Civil Rights movement. "One hundred years of history is 
       spanned in an enlightening portrait of admirable dignity."
       - New York Times "A moving account of the Pullman porters'
       remarkable (and largely untold) history." - Washington 
       Post.
