On April 8, 1968, just days after the assassination of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., a powerful moment unfolded in Memphis.

Coretta Scott King joined thousands in a march supporting sanitation workers who were fighting for fair wages, dignity, and safe working conditions.

Her presence was not symbolic, it was leadership in action.
At a time of national grief, she stepped into the movement and helped carry it forward.

This moment reminds us that the struggle for justice has always been collective, rooted in community, and sustained through courage.

At RSAA, we honor not only the history,
but the responsibility to keep building toward equity and liberation.
Justice. Repair. Community.
