In the fifth episode of the I AM Story podcast, current labor leaders discuss how the lessons of the Memphis Sanitation Workers' Strike are as relevant today as they were 55 years ago.
Whether it's building resolve in the face of setbacks, understanding the power of non-violent civil disobedience, the timeless call for safety in the workplace, or how the "I AM A MAN" slogan applies to all workers seeking dignity on the job, I AM Story's fifth episode is a must-listen for workers everywhere.
Hear AFSCME President Lee Saunders bring together SEIU's Mary Kay Henry, AFT's Randi Weingarten and UNITE HERE's D. Taylor, as they talk about what the 1968 Memphis Sanitation Workers' Strike means to them, and how they use the lessons of that historic struggle to fight for workers they represent.

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
