The Birmingham Labor Advocate was a newspaper published in Birmingham from 1888 to 1948 and allied with the international labor movement and, specifically the American Federation of Labor (AFL). The paper's founding publisher was Jere Dennis, president of the Birmingham Trades Council in 1893 and later an attorney, who retired from the paper in 1896. William Mailly, a miner blacklisted after the 1894 miners' strike, served Dennis as Associate Editor from 1895 to 1896.
