Ibrondani’s Reviews > Freedom Summer: The Savage Season of 1964 That Made Mississippi Burn and Made America a Democracy > Status Update

“Don’t come to Mississippi this summer to save the Mississippi Negro. Only come if you understand, really understand, that his freedom and yours are one. Maybe we’re not going to get very many people registered this summer. Maybe, even, we’re not going to get very many people into Freedom Schools. Maybe all we’re going to do is live through this summer. In Mississippi, that will be so much.”
