SMART-TD shares with the late Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. the dream that men and women should be judged not by the color of their skin, their nationality or religious beliefs, but by the content of their hearts.
Below is a link to Dr. King’s speech, delivered on Aug. 28, 1963, from the steps of the Lincoln Memorial, during the “March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom.” Recall too, that on the day of Dr. King’s 1968 assassination, he was in Memphis, Tenn., to support striking sanitation workers. He was truly friend of the labor movement.
Diversity is our strength.
