Administrative Records

The Administrative Records series contains material generated by the Washtenaw County chapter of the Labor Party, and documents both the local activities of the chapter and the national issues the Labor Party sought to address. The correspondence and minutes are the largest and most significant of the administrative material.

Topical Files

The Topical Files series contains documents related to various political groups or issues in Michigan. Some of the material, such as the Detroit newspaper strike material, documents the involvement of the Labor Party in these issues. Other files, however, such as the Habitat for Humanity material, contain few references to the Labor Party itself, and appear to be only marginally related to the organization.

One of the videocassettes also includes a segment on Chiapas, Mexico, and another entitled "People's State," concerns living conditions and state support for unemployed or low income people living in Michigan.
