On June 14, 1964, the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee (SNCC) began training 1,000 volunteers at Western College for Women in Ohio. 🏫 They were trained to register Black voters, teach in Freedom Schools, and support the Mississippi Freedom Democratic Party. 🗳️ A week into the volunteers’ training in Ohio, tragedy struck in Mississippi. #FreedomSummer #CivilRightsMovement #VotingRights #BlackHistoryEveryDay #MarchOnxFreedomSummer
