Our third episode in our Black History Series! Today, Emily heads to Mims, Florida - about 45 miles from Orlando - to tell the story of Harry and Harriette Moore, a badass couple that stood up against racism and became the first martyrs of the Civil Rights movement. Then Rachel tells the incredible story of Fannie Lou Hamer, one of the most important, passionate, and powerful voices of the civil and voting rights movement. Hopefully, you’re horrified!
