This feature length film brings to life the 1960-1965 Mississippi Voter Registration Project with the story of local sharecroppers—led by women like Fannie Lou Hamer—and young civil rights organizers, black and white, who worked together to challenge the apartheid system in Mississippi.
Strategy session on how to save and extend the vote as a fundamental human right, in the wake of the passage of so called “voter I.D.” laws, will follow the screening.
Join the Freedom Socialist Party in for a moving, living evening on Friday, February 24, 7:00pm at Solidarity Hall, 2122 W. Jefferson Blvd. in Los Angeles.
A hearty winter buffet, with vegetarian option will be served at 6:30 p.m. for an $8.00 donation.
