When you hear stories about the civil rights movement in the '50s and '60s, it mainly revolves around figures like Martin Luther King Jr., Malcolm X, Rosa Parks, and Medgar and Myrlie Evers. But did you ever hear about Fannie Lou Hammer?
She wasn’t just a civil rights activist. Hammer was a voting and women’s rights activist as well as a community organizer. She was the founder of the Freedom Democratic Party and was the co-founder of the National Women’s Political Caucus.
