Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 1964 was the height of the Civil Rights and Wrongs Movement, and America was in turmoil. I was eight years old and visiting the town of Philadelphia, Mississippi for a family reunion. This story is about something I have remembered from that time, when I met two men on a creek bank in Neshoba County, Mississippi on August 6, 1964. I have always remembered what they said out loud in front of me. The one with the hat said, "Judge, go up there and find out who's muddying up the water," and the tall slender man said, "You're the Lawman-you go up there and find out who’s muddying up the water." I’ve always wondered why I met two men that were a judge and a lawman. Meanwhile, 50 years later while doing research on the Internet, I discovered information pertaining to the identity of the middle man between the FBI and the person who helped solve the mystery of the whereabouts of the three civil rights workers that went missing on June 21, 1964. He was Commander of the Mississippi Highway Safety Patrol in Meridian, Mississippi. But the identity of the local Neshoba County Citizen that helped the FBI is still unknown. I know who is America’s unsung hero!

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Essay from the year 2007 in the subject American Studies - Miscellaneous, grade: keine, University of Marburg, language: English, abstract: Alan Parker’s movie Mississippi Burning is set in a small town in the state of Mississippi. The plot of the movie plays in 1964 when the three civil rights activists Michael Schwerner, Andrew Goodman and James Chaney, traveling in a car at night, are forced off the road and out of their car and shot by members of the Ku-Klux-Klan. The FBI is put on the case and two agents – a younger FBI-academy agent and a small town agent - travel to Meridian to examine the case, after having been informed of the disappearance. The two agents then call for more manpower to solve the case despite the difficulties they encounter with the state officials. The investigation leads to tensions between the small town community and the FBI agents and the situation between the Ku-Klux-Klan and the black population escalates. The agents finally find the vehicle of the three civil rights workers in a swamp. In order to find the bodies Klan members including the mayor are interviewed and eventually forced by dingy methods to reveal the location of the bodies. In the last sequence of the movie most of the members are convicted and sent to prison. Only one member is acquitted. The movie revealed a glimpse of the involvement of high rank officials in the case and the attitude of the population of Mississippi toward the burnings, the killings and the investigation. It is yet to be examined whether both the involvement and the attitude are used as dramatic elements or represent the actual situation in small towns in 1964 Mississippi. Despite the fact that the latter, meaning the attitude, is harder to be examined, both aspects have to be taken into consideration, in order to be able to get an impression of the situation of small town Mississippi in the mid sixties. According to all the documents collected within the long investigation for the several trials that followed the case, it is true that a lot of high rank officials were involved. In the movie the civil rights workers are stopped and shot by a sheriff driving a patrol car.

Book excerpt: This authoritative set provides a one-stop resource for understanding specific FBI controversies as well as for those looking to understand the full history, law enforcement authority, and inner workings of the nation's most famous and important federal law enforcement agency. This authoritative two-volume reference resource uses a combination of encyclopedia entries and primary sources to provide a comprehensive overview of the FBI, detailing its history, most famous leaders and agents, institutional structure and authority, law enforcement responsibilities, reporting relationships to other parts of government, and major events and controversies. Today the FBI sits squarely at the intersection of major controversies surrounding the presidential campaign and administration of Donald Trump, foreign interference in U.S. elections, and politicization of law enforcement. But the FBI has always been in the political spotlight—its history is dotted with episodes that have come under heavy scrutiny, from its surveillance of civil rights leaders during the 1960s to the methods it employs to combat domestic terrorism in the post-9/11 era. And all the while, FBI agents and offices across the country continue to investigate a wide range of lawbreaking, from organized crime (in all its facets) to white-collar crime and corruption by public officials.

Download or read book The Lynching of Cleo Wright written by Dominic J. CapeciJr. and published by University Press of Kentucky. This book was released on 2014-10-17 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On January 20, 1942, black oil mill worker Cleo Wright assaulted a white woman in her home and nearly killed the first police officer who tried to arrest him. An angry mob then hauled Wright out of jail and dragged him through the streets of Sikeston, Missouri, before burning him alive. Wright's death was, unfortunately, not unique in American history, but what his death meant in the larger context of life in the United States in the twentieth-century is an important and compelling story. After the lynching, the U.S. Justice Department was forced to become involved in civil rights concerns for the first time, provoking a national reaction to violence on the home front at a time when the country was battling for democracy in Europe. Dominic Capeci unravels the tragic story of Wright's life on several stages, showing how these acts of violence were indicative not only of racial tension but the clash of the traditional and the modern brought about by the war. Capeci draws from a wide range of archival sources and personal interviews with the participants and spectators to draw vivid portraits of Wright, his victims, law-enforcement officials, and members of the lynch mob. He places Wright in the larger context of southern racial violence and shows the significance of his death in local, state, and national history during the most important crisis of the twentieth-century.

Download or read book Faces of Freedom Summer written by Bobs M. Tusa and published by University of Alabama Press. This book was released on 2022-09-20 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Affirms, validates, and reiterates the yearning for an orderly, peaceful and just world The old adage “One picture is worth ten thousand words” is definitely true for Faces of Freedom Summer. There are simply not enough words to describe the period in our history that is recorded by the pictures in this book. As this book afirms, the resurgence of overt activities by hate groups—both the old traditional ones (e.g., the Ku Klux Klan) and the new ones (e.g., the Skin Heads)—however much the hard work and sacrifices of the modern civil rights movement humanized American society, much still remains to be done. The modern civil rights movement associated with the 1960s was not in vain, yet it did not eradicate from our society the evils of racism and sexism. While we activists made the United States more of an open society than it has ever been in its history, our vision and desire for the beloved community did not reach into all sectors of American society. “Freedom,” it has been said, “is a constant struggle, a work of eternal vigilance.” Faces of Freedom Summer brings to life that there was such a time and there were such people and, if such a people were once, then they are still among us. Yet, they may only become aware of themselves when they are confronted with visible evidence, such as the evidence contained in the pictures of Herbert Randall.
