February 1968, in Memphis Tennessee, 1,300 sanitation workers went on strike for job safety, better wages, benefits and union representation. Workers held signs reading “I AM A MAN.” Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. joined their fight, and on April 4th 1968, was assassinated in Memphis.

In memory of Dr. King, Orange County will join the nation and stand as one for human rights and dignity against those politicians who want to silence millions of working families today! “WE ARE ONE”
