  • Joel M. Pritchard
    Joel M.Pritchard Joel M. Pritchard An OralHistory WSOHP During his twelve years in Congress, Joel was always in the minority party, but was so well liked and trusted by members of both parties that he could play an effective role. He organized social events for House members and games like softball and Pickle-Ball. People got used to each other and the Washington delegation began to work on common interests. Joel was the glue that held the delegation together. When he retired after fi ve re-elections, as he had promised before his fi rst election, he came up to talk with me about possible new avenues. He really did not have much support in his family for running for lieutenant governor and we had a long talk over lunch. I told him he would be a natural in that role and could turn the job into a very useful public service. He did run, was elected, and became a very popular lieutenant governor by using his unique talent for bringing An Oral History people together. — From the foreword by Jim Ellis Washington State Oral History Program Offi ce of the Secretary of State Joel M Pritchard An Oral History Interviewed by Anne Kilgannon Washington State Oral History Program Office of the Secretary of State Ralph Munro, Secretary of State Copyright 2000 Washington State Oral History Program All rights reserved ISBN 1-889320-14-5 Library of Congress Subject Headings 1+ Pritchard, Joel M+, 1925-1997 2+ LegislatorsWashingtonbiography 3+ Washingtonpolitics and government Washington State Oral History Program Office of Secretary of State Legislative Building

  • Art Fletcher’S Star-Crossed Life As a Civil Rights Trailblazer
    ARTHUR FLETCHER Crossing the Color-Line “The name of the game is to put some economic flesh and bones on Dr. King’s dream.” —Arthur Fletcher hen Arthur Fletcher announced his candidacy for lieutenant governor on May 3, 1968, his race made him such an electoral novelty that practically every Wnewspaper in the state used the same identifier. He was “the Negro Pasco city councilman.” As the campaign progressed and Fletcher became less of a literal dark horse, other labels were applied, including “former pro football player,” “ex-shoe shine boy,” “ice man” and “one-time janitor.” When a reporter covering his campaign quipped that things must be looking up because a political columnist had just called him “an articulate Negro,” Fletcher nearly doubled over in delight. “And we’re very musical and have shiny white teeth!” he declared, his laughter rocking the room. In 1903, W.E.B. Du Bois, the first African American to receive a Ph.D. from Harvard, wrote a groundbreaking book, The Souls of Black Folk. It begins with an observation that sums up Art Fletcher’s star-crossed life as a civil rights trailblazer. “The problem of the Twentieth Century,” Du Bois wrote, “is the problem of the color-line.” We’re now in the second decade of the 21st century, 50 years after Fletcher crossed the color-line to win the Republican nomination for lieutenant governor. Washington has yet to elect an African American to one of its nine statewide offices or Congress.* Though what-might-have-beens are intriguing—Could Fletcher have gone on to be- come governor or a U.S.
