Pamela Blackmore

This year, for Women's History Month, we're taking a look at a group of leaders who are currently active making women's history across the labor movement. Check back daily for a new profile and meet some of the people working to improve not only their community, but also to improve conditions for working people across the country. Today's profile is Pamela Blackmore of SMART.

Kansas City tradeswoman Pamela Blackmore is a journeyperson, a night shift foreman, a conductor at SMART Local 2 union meetings and the recording secretary for the Local 2 Women’s Committee.
