Memphis March
Coretta Scott King leads thousands of silent protestors past City Hall in Memphis, Tennessee, in support of the city's striking sanitation workers, 8th April 1968. She is leading the march in the absence of her husband, civil rights leader Martin Luther King Jr, who was assassinated a few days earlier. The strike is a response to the deaths of sanitation workers Echol Cole and Robert Walker in a garbage compactor. (Photo by Pictorial Parade/Archive Photos/Getty Images)
