Fannie Lou Hamer’s America

Fannie Lou Hamer’s America is a portrait of a civil rights activist and the injustices in America that made her work essential. Through public speeches, personal interviews, and powerful songs of the fearless Mississippi sharecropper-turned-human-rights-activist, Fannie Lou Hamer’s America explores and celebrates the lesser-known life of one of the Civil Rights Movement’s greatest leaders.

FANNIE LOU HAMER’S AMERICA will broadcast on PBS on February 22, 2022 and WORLD Channel’s America ReFramed on February 24, 2022. Check local listings for airtimes. Learn more about the film here.
