  • The International African Service Bureau (IASB) was a pan-African organisation founded in London in 1937 by West Indians George Padmore, C. L. R. James, Amy Ashwood Garvey, T. Ras Makonnen and Kenyan nationalist Jomo Kenyatta and Sierra Leonean labour activist and agitator I. T. A. Wallace-Johnson. Chris Braithwaite (also known as Jones), was Secretary of this organisation. The bureau emerged from the International African Friends of Abyssinia (Ethiopia) and intended to address issues relating to Africa and the African diaspora to the British general public. Similar in design and organization to the West African Youth League, the IASB also sought to inform the public about the grievances faced by those in colonial Africa and created a list of desired reforms and freedoms that would help the colonies. The bureau also hoped to encourage new African trade unions to affiliate themselves with the British labour movement. To further its interest, it held weekly meetings at Hyde Park, where members discussed labor strikes in the Caribbean and Ethiopia. It also supplied speakers to branches of the Labour Party, trade unions and the League of Nations Union and provided questions to be asked in front of Parliament regarding legislation, working conditions and trade union regulations. The IASB journal, International African Opinion, was edited by C. L. R. James. In 1939 the IASB worked alongside the League of Coloured Peoples and the West African Students Union to campaign against the colour bar introduced by Adjutant-General Robert Gordon-Finlayson in the British Army. The organisation lasted until about 1945. (en)

IASB dibentuk oleh beberapa anggota yang dua tahun sebelumnya mendirikan International African Friends of Abyssinia (Ethiopia), tujuan IASB adalah untuk menangani masalah-masalah yang berkaitan dengan Afrika dan diaspora Afrika kepada masyarakat umum Inggris. Rancangan dan organisasi IASB mirip dengan , IASB juga berupaya memberi tahu publik tentang keluhan yang dihadapi oleh rakyat Afrika yang saat itu berada di bawah pemerintahan kolonial, serta membuat daftar reformasi dan kebebasan yang akan membantu wilayah-wilayah koloni. IASB juga berharap untuk mendorong serikat pekerja baru Afrika untuk berafiliasi dengan gerakan buruh Inggris. Selanjutnya IASB mengadakan pertemuan mingguan di Hyde Park, di sana para anggota membahas mogok kerja di Karibia dan Etiopia. Selain itu, IASB juga menyediakan pembicara untuk cabang-cabang Partai Buruh, serikat pekerja dan Liga Bangsa-Bangsa serta menyiapkan beberapa pertanyaan yang akan diajukan di depan Parlemen Inggris mengenai undang-undang, kondisi kerja dan peraturan serikat pekerja. IASB menerbitkan journal, International African Opinion, yang diedit oleh C. L. R. James. Organisasi ini bertahan hingga sekitar tahun 1945. (in)
