poster for Pleasant "Chases Me 1968"

This event has ended.

"CHASES ME 1968" is inspired by the Memphis sanitation strike of 1968,
that captivated the nation. There thousands of black men, demanded
equality and justice at the workplace, signified by holding wearing
simple placards that read "I AM A MAN."

Dr. Martin Luther King came to Memphis to show his support for the
striking workers. It was there, that King lost his life and America
lost one of its most cherished heroes.
