ATU Local 113 President, Marvin Alfred, sat down with Toronto’s first black female streetcar operator, Irma James.
This interview provides an overview of Irma’s journey, her experiences with racism on transit, and a message for ATU Local 113 members as we celebrate Black History Month.
ATU Local 113 attended the celebration to launch Black History Month at Mount Dennis Garage, earlier this week.
Our union is very proud of our all our members, staff, and all who are working behind the scenes to ensure Black History is recognized and celebrated meaningfully in our place of work and in our communities.
