Union Strong

Honoring MLK


Listen Later

Voting rights were a cornerstone of Martin Luther King Jr's legacy. 
 
On the latest episode of the Union Strong podcast we discuss the current state of voting rights in this country and what Dr. King might have to say about it if he was with us today. 
 
New York State AFL-CIO Secretary-Treasurer Terry Melvin is our guest as we discuss the meaning of Martin Luther King Day and Dr. King's connection to the union movement.
 
Secretary-Treasurer Melvin also talks about how we can honor Dr. King and what we can learn from his many speeches and writings.
