Shows my ignorance I thought she had something to do with hair. It's because of people like her who went through SO much for us to be able to vote that as a black woman I vote. Doesn't matter who I vote for. With the government making it so felons cant vote. I ll be damned if our black ancestors who were part of the civil rights died in vain. How dare us as black people who can vote don't

@@vergespierre4271 You’re right, it was a few years ago when I made that comment. I stopped using the term ‘African American’ when referring to black American citizens. In fact, I simply call them American, and only bring skin colour or ethnicity into it if the topic concerns race. When I thought about it, the name ‘African American’ isn’t correct. To me it sounds as if they don’t belong and only just arrived in America as recent immigrants of their own free will. Then why don’t we refer to white Americans as European Americans? It sounds just as ridiculous from the same perspective. Most black Americans have no connection with Africa whatsoever other than some long lost lineage at least 6-7 generations ago when slavery was in place before the US civil war. The ones that do are true recent immigrants with US citizenship and not even they are called African American, but instead Nigerian-American, Ghanaian Americans, or from whichever country they originated from within the continent of Africa.

Even after being forewarned that we would be dismantled as a nation and scattered to the 4 corners of the earth, if we didn't do them that we would receive such treatment (Deutoronomy 28). It's insanity that our people are still relying upon a government to make things better for them that was never intended for them in the 1st place. Come back to Your True Heritage!!

I don't know how Caucasians, who have familial roots in America that stretch for several hundred years of generations, feel so comfortable with their history. So comfortable as to make their history a standard in our educational system's curriculum like it's not barbarism while simultaneously muting other experiences who bring to light their depravity. So comfortable as to have no real remorse nor accountability to work to right those wrongs because today's descendants are still benefiting from those atrocities and don't want to give up their privilege for equity. I'd be deeply ashamed. This woman was ALIVE within the last 50 years but not LIVING because she continuously had to fight to be treated like a human, too recent for comfort and Black people are STILL dealing with this. I never knew her story in depth but I'm SO HAPPY AND GRATEFUL I know now. She's just another Black woman I'm going to use to model my life after on how to Survive and Better America. Rest in Power Queen. Happy Black History Month.

While Fannie Hamer was fighting in Mississippi for the right to vote my mother had it easy and yes I am ashamed of this inequality!!

I'm caucasian and I don't feel ashamed of what was done by people from history who happened to have my skin color. Are you ashamed of everything that's ever been done by anyone who has skin like yours? Many people are mixed race without knowing it. Should they be ashamed of everything that's been done by both white and black forebears? I only have the chance to do what's right in my lifetime. I will try and I will acknowledge if I don't do enough. I saw Fannie Lou portrayed in a film about Pres. Johnson and here I am trying to educate myself and I'm very sorry to see black people hurling rocks at me because of the color of my skin. Making white people feel guilty for things beyond their control is not constructive.

Mrs. Fannie, thank you for all that you did to bring about positive change for black people. Your suffering will not be in vain. Many, many white people are going to suffer, because of how they treated black people. Mrs. Fannie, continue to rest in the arms of God, and know that judgment is going to right the wrongs that were done to you.

Learned about this sister when I was 8 ( 1977). My aunt who was a teacher at the time saw me doing a report on MLK and asked who else are you learning about and I named the usual black history top ten and she shook her head. From that day forward my aunt began teaching me and giving me books about other black history GIANTS who get overlooked!! To this day I thank her for that!! Rest in Power to Mrs. Hamer!! A great book to read that uncovers more of our medical history in this country “ Medical Aparthied” by Harriet Washington- a must read!!!

I m completely disgusted by Johnson and Humphrey's actions against her. I didn't know this amazing woman's story until seeing this video. Thank you.
