It was called Freedom Summer, and they came to Mississippi by the hundreds, white and black, young and old. Their aim was elemental: secure the right to vote for blacks in the state. The hurdle they’d face would be daunting. Follow a reporter as she journeys to Mississippi and encounters the echoes of family and the struggle for civil rights.

Reality of Freedom Summer and living in the South as a Black person in the 30's, 40's and 50's

By Amazon Customer on July 19, 2014

Format: Kindle Edition Verified Purchase

Ghosts of Greenwood is clearly a very personal story of the author and her family. The story reveals the realities of the fear and violence that was lived by her family and others in the South. So much was kept quiet and the story develops with the author's Great Aunt eventually sharing some of those harsh realities after initially wanting to portray that everything was fine. To me it shows that the South still wants to keep it's secrets and those who have held those secrets also want to keep them. A poignant telling of what happened in Freedom Summer. Excellent read.

History in Greenwood

Format: Kindle Edition Verified Purchase

I like the story telling of the civil rights struggle, during that period. And the people directly involved at that time.
