Freedom on My Mind

The award-winning documentary 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. A 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 film showing. A winter buffet with vegetarian option will be served at 6:30 p.m. for an $8.00 donation.
