The Freedom Summer project made a lasting impact on Mississippi and the civil rights movement: 🗳️ Thousands of Black Mississippians registered to vote. 🏫 Freedom Schools educated hundreds of Black students. 📷 National attention exposed severe repression in Mississippi. 🏛️ Paved the way for the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and the Voting Rights Act of 1965. Don’t let the efforts of the Freedom Summer be in vain–continue educating yourself and others about the untold stories of the civil rights movement. #FreedomSummer #CivilRightsMovement #VotingRights #BlackHistoryEveryDay #MarchOnxFreedomSummer
