#OnThisDay in 1968, local newspapers called the strike a failure as 90 garbage trucks remained in operation. Yet, 17,000 Memphians attended a rally at Mason Temple led by Dr. King, where he called for a citywide march on March 22. #MLK50NCRM

Some are convinced that we can pray injustice and inhumanity away. Christ didn’t pray the Cross up. He took it up. For the world. He agonized and prayed in the Garden of Gethsemane about His work on the Cross. Then, He finished the work. Pray. Agonize. But do the work.

The mayor was Bill Morris and the year was 1987.

In 2017 - 40 years later- black families still had half the income of white families in Shelby County, $33K vs $66K.

But tell me again how much progress we’ve made since 1968. #MLK50
