    We remember James Chaney on what would have been his 77th birthday. Chaney, Andrew Goodman, and Michael Schwerner were murdered by the KKK in 1964 for registering African Americans to vote. We have to honor them with action and continue fighting for equal access to the ballot.pic.twitter.com/OcLmMYYp7o

    The image shows the faces of three men who were murdered in 1964 in Mississippi while registering African Americans to vote. Their names are Andrew Goodman, James Chaney, and Michael Schwerner. The image asks people to call the FBI if they have information about these men, who were missing at the time.

        The excellent young adult book, Freedom Summer Murders, by Don Mitchell, should be required reading in all middle schools.

        I remember this like it was yesterday. I also remember Viola Liuzzo from 1965.

        Not just the KKK, but also local police - Cecil Price and Lawrence Rainey. They were part of the group that arrested them, set them up, and killed them.
