http://www.democraticstuff.com/mlk     Dr. King and the 1968 AFSCME Memphis Sanitation Strike http://www.afscme.org/about/1029.cfm For those that don't know, Dr. King was in Memphis to stand up for striking sanitation workers of AFSCME Local 1733. On April 3, 1968, Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. traveled to Memphis to support AFSCME sanitation workers. That evening, he delivered his famous “I’ve Been to the Mountaintop” speech to a packed room of supporters. The next day, he was assassinated.  OS |
