      Amen , Cuz I have never ever heard of THIS AWESOME AMAZING WOMAN, I was just scrolling down and I happened to see her , so I listen to one of the videos , When she spoke back in 1963 I think it was , When Johnson was president, Bcuz they showed what he did as many spoke , like Martin Luther King, But when she begun to tell her TRUTHS well all of a sudden there was a breakthrough in the news because it was being done life, Johnson didn't want her to be hurt by the American people, so he purposely make sure he had the programming interrupted ... But at the end it BACKED FIRED.. AND HER TESTIMONY OVER AND OVER..LOL MIAKES YOU WONDER WHAT GOES ON TODAY.. WHAT IS SO MANY THINGS GOING ON ALL OVER THE WORLD, IMPORTANT THINGS FOR US TO KNOW BUT ALL THE NEWS STATIONS ARE TALKING ABOUT NOTHING...

    She saw the intersection between voting rights, education, and economic opportunity. She was far ahead of her time, and was planting seeds for trees that she wouldn't live to sit under. We, the people, must continue her legacy and fight for the upward mobility and empowerment of the Black community. May her name forever be engraved in the halls of history for her outstanding work and achievements to make a better world for us all.

    I would like to apologize to her because I just found out about her today...It brings tears to my eyes when I think about all the things my ancestors went through so that I can have the freedom that I have today. It also brings tears to my eyes when I think of all the people of color who don’t take advantage of the opportunities that our ancestors died for...I feel like even if you feel college isn’t for you do it anyways because someone died for you to have that opportunity...if you don’t agree with government still vote because many died for that...and the list goes on.

    This woman, Mrs. Fannie Lou Hamer, a woman without pedigree or portfolio ought to be known throughout every haunt, and hut and hamlet and home of America and beyond. Powerful, yet humble, prescient and prophetic, yet contemporaneous, Mrs. Hamer's statue ought to reside in the hallowed (sic) space of Statuary Hall in the U.S. Congress. Bruised, beaten, bothered and belittled yet unbought and unbowed, Mrs. Hamer is a true American heroine. I pray that Tyler Perry, Oprah Winfrey or some other person of means and/or influence will gravitate to her story and help resurrect her name and memory to its proper place in herstory. She is, my friends, the apotheosis of greatness and courage in the face of trouble and tumult; unquestionably, sainthood should be her apogee

      I totally agree with you. It is a damn shame, we black people really don't know who we are, because we don't know much about our history. All we know, are SELECTIVE history, which are designed to keep us ignorant. Professor James Small, has said that the whole history of black people, needed to be REWRITTEN , because they are full of lies. He and other black scholars have been challenging the history of black people, which were written by white historians. I hope one day, we black people, will learn the truth about who we are

    Black filmmakers should really come together and do a movie about this remarkable woman! Her story is so compelling! MOST of the women we tend to associate with The Civil Rights Movement (Coretta Scott King, Myrlie Beasley Evers, Rosa Parks, Betty Shabaz, etc.) are usually in the role of "wives" or "supporters" of the male leaders of the movement...... Fannie Lou Hamer, is one of the few WOMEN who was actually a Civil Rights LEADER in her own right.... That alone, makes her worth doing a movie about!

    Fannie Lou Hamer is one my all time favourite civil rights leaders in my history. She was defiant as well as beautiful. She fought for the justice as well as equality of Africans in Mississippi being denied by the home of the so called slave trade and that’s Washington DC. Mama Fannie condemned the racist and injustice murders in Mississippi such as Brother Medgar Evers, Brother Emmitt Till and Brother James Chaney as well as what these racist pigs did by humiliating her. A great civil rights leader in Mississippi. Mama Fannie also went to Guinea too.

    Very powerful and motivational. I hate it that our black leaders were so "all-inclusive". That has never worked for blacks. Eventually, we need a leader that studies history and takes the hint, white people dont want us to be prosperous and if we want a better future for ourselves, its more than likely gonna have to be a future excluding contact with white people. W
    Our leaders keep trying to force "we are one" down our throats and that has had us stuck for centuries. We are not one and we need to understand that just because we are a very accepting race of people, that doesnt mean everyone else is, or has to be.

    Mrs. Hamer speaks as if she is living in the political and racial climate of 2017. Check out her words about the National Anthem starting @ 33:32. Activity: Replace her words in parathesis for present-day tragedies at the hands of police--motivated by racist ideology.
    ---I can't stand today --not with dignity and sing the National Anthem.
    Oh say can you see by the dawn's early light. What so proudly we hailed...
    Poor, oppressed people throughout this country don't have anything to hail. And, I just sing it in my own way. When I have to stand and sing that song. Because you know as well as I know, that America is sick. And, man is on the critical list. And when people can be shot down at (a college like Kent and a college like Jackson State College) by people with stars in their arms, something is very wrong here.
