In 1968, Black sanitation workers in Memphis marched with simple cardboard signs declaring “I Am a Man.” No slogans, no frills—just a demand for dignity in the face of poverty wages, racial injustice, and unsafe working conditions. Those four words carried the weight of centuries, echoing through the Civil Rights Movement and beyond.

Martin Luther King Jr. was in Memphis to support the striking sanitation workers. Supporting those workers was his last political act.

This shirt takes the placard off the streets and onto your chest, a reminder that the fight for respect and recognition is never finished. Minimalist, bold, and unshakably human, it’s more than a design—it’s a declaration.

Quality Bella+Canvas Long Sleeve Jersey
Soft, lightweight, and built to last. Made from 100% Airlume combed and ring-spun cotton with a classic fit and long sleeves for added comfort. It’s pre-shrunk for consistent sizing and printed with DIGISOFT® for bold, long-lasting designs—your new go-to when the temperature drops.
