Freedom Summer Tours
The Two Mississippi Museums education staff will offer tours at 10:30 a.m. and 1 p.m. followed by a Q&A to honor the lives of James Chaney, Andrew Goodman, and Michael Schwerner. These three Freedom Summer volunteers were murdered on June 21, 1964, for their efforts in registering African Americans to vote during the Civil Rights Movement. The tours will highlight the story of Chaney, Goodman, and Schwerner, and its impact on Freedom Summer in Mississippi. For more information, call 601-576-6850 or email info@mdah.ms.gov.
