The Civil Rights leader, Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., went to Memphis to support the sanitation workers. He marched with them and made speeches. During the marches, many workers wore signs that read “I Am A Man.” This showed that they were fighting for equality, dignity, and respect.

“I am a man” became a unifying civil rights theme. The slogan directly attacked the racist, infantilizing practice of white people referring to adult black men as “boy,” which prevailed for decades across the Jim Crow South.
