  • Thanks guys I had to watch this for school I appreciate it.!

  • @Mamba1743

    A remake or an updated verson of eyes on the prize should be done since in addition to Beckwith, the last surviving bombers of the 16th Street Baptist Church, the killer of Vernon Dhalmer and the ringleader of the murders of Goodman, Chaney and Schwerner have been arrested and are either serving life scentences or have died in prison for their roles in the crimes.

    In my eye the MFDP were the true representatives of Mississippi at the 1964 convention

  • they need to update this because in 94 Beckwith was convicted.

  • Astounding and moving. Thanks for posting this.
