        The movie Mississippi Burning instilled a sense of racial tolerance, understanding and acceptance of others in me. Their deaths were tragic.

        I think tho, unlike in the film, Feds did very little to bring justice. & 16 yrs later, Reagan made a states' rights speech nearby.

        A critical history lesson that cannot ever be forgotten! It's start with tribalism and the failure to see one humanity - one human family.

        More focus is needed on these brave heroes at a time of great danger. Why not replace Southern monuments with tributes to them. #Resistance

        Here's a poem I wrote about those Martyrs, for opening of a play that dealt with the same: http://chazmena.com/1061-2/

        Maybe that's why we need to keep resisting? In remembrance of heroes who didn't give up the fight even at the expense of losing their lives.

        I've read many. Southern Strategy was pure myth made up liberals to white wash their evil.

        1964 Mississippi was a very economically anxious place.

        Are you saying it's acceptable to kill for economic relief? Or that racism is invisible to you? I'll guess "Both of the above" 🙄.
