| Annotation | Born the twentieth child of poor southern sharecroppers, Fannie Lou Hamer entered a world of poverty, hard labor, repression, beatings, and racism. Her courageous work with the Mississippi voter registration campaign, that began in 1962, made her an enduring symbol of the civil rights movement. And for the next fifteen years her fiery songs and stories inspired audiences to action. For senior high and older readers. |
