The Decorum Deception: Wednesdays In Mississippi
Check out our latest video on the Wednesdays In Mississippi movement that took place during the summers of 1964 and 1965 when a committed coalition of women assembled by civil rights activist Dorothy Height along with Polly Cowan of the National Council of Jewish Women organized groups of women who traveled to Mississippi on a weekly basis to build relationships with Southern women and bring much needed aid and support for civil rights and voting rights. The threat of violence was real, yet they persevered. This story is a Black Mail favorite. We hope you enjoy it. Head over to the Classroom and check it out!
