Speaking with relatives about family history, I am often told to keep this piece of information between you, me and the gate post. Respecting sensibilities, I will share my family stories entwine with historical events from Copiah, Jefferson and Lincoln Counties, Mississippi, from gate post to gate post.

Remembering Medgar Evers 1925-1963
Remembering civil rights activist Medgar Evers who worked to end segregation in Mississippi. He was assassinated 50 years ago, June 12, 1963.
Those were some sad times but full of hope.

ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing the wonderful link. I learned much about Medgar Evers from listening to it.
