Hi Laura.
Don't be ignorant please.
Most accounts regarding '63-'67 Mississippi
have under gone a lot of revisionism. Some
events were unconscionable. Others have been
grossly exaggerated and embellished over the years.
Edgar Ray Killen was NOT "the Klan" but
Senator Byrd sure was "the Klan" in his day.

Kind of like how 3 million Jews became 6 million Jews. No, I believe it.

To be honest, that era was not
MS best moment.
I was there.
You are right in that there has
been a lot of revisionism.
However, you are wrong if you think
that none of it was true.
It can not be sluffed off.
