Dirt & Deeds in Mississippi (2016)
With the 50th anniversary of the Mississippi 'Freedom Summer' approaching, and the 50th anniversary of the Voting Rights Act also on the horizon, Dirt & Deeds In Mississippi is the timely untold story of how the Black landowners of Mississippi became the secret weapon of the American civil rights movement of the 1960s. Against tremendous odds, in the early '60s, Blacks still retained title to over a million acres of land in Mississippi, but were still being denied the right to vote. Dirt & Deeds is the revelatory account of how that land was used as a vital resource in the fight for freedom and is the real story behind the Hollywood film 'Mississippi Burning'.
