The American Federation of Labor consisted of an association of self governing national unions, each of which kept independence, with the AFL overall strategy. No individual laborer could join the central organization.

(Straight out of an Advancement placement US History book)

However, each of the unions that the AFL governed had to consist of only skilled workers. No unskilled workers were allowed within the union.
