Episode description
Broadcast on April 6, 2023
Hosted by Chris Garlock & Ed Smith
Tuesday, April 4, was the 55th anniversary of the assassination of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. in Memphis, Tennessee, where he had been supporting a strike by 1,300 Black sanitation workers. This week, AFSCME -- the union those sanitation workers belonged to -- released the first episode of I AM STORY, a podcast that retells the gripping story of a labor struggle that rocked a city and altered our history. We talk with Kris Stith, one of the members of the I AM STORY team, plus we share a trailer for the podcast.
Produced by Chris Garlock; engineered by Michael Nassella and Kahlia Chapman.
