The Story of Freedom Summer
Freedom On My Mind vividly chronicles the complex and compelling history of the Mississippi voter registration struggles of 1961 to 1964: the interracial nature of the campaign, the tensions and conflicts, the fears and hopes. The film provides a sweeping panorama of a turbulent time: a time that tested America's purpose. It is the story of youthful idealism and shared vision, of a generation who believed in and fought for the principles of democracy.
