I thought it was important to remember why it was, that Dr. King was in Memphis.
Dr. King was there to:
On April 4, 1968, Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. was assassinated in Memphis, where he had gone to stand with sanitation workers demanding their dream: The right to bargain collectively for a voice at work and a better life. The workers were trying to form a union with AFSCME.I really don't have much more to add then that. But I just want to say that worker rights have long been a civil rights issue. It is important to remember where have come from, and what is at stake.
