Indie Memphis 2009

In 1968, Elmore Nickleberry stood among 1,300 other African-American men in Memphis, Tennessee as they collectively asserted their right to be treated with dignity. Mr. Nickleberry hasn't sat down yet. Each night, he guides his garbage truck through the streets of Memphis -- a living link to a frequently forgotten chapter in American history, and one long eclipsed by the slaying of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. in the city.
