Fannie Lou Hamer describes the intimidation tactics she faced trying to exercise her right to register vote

Here's more of that video from tonight's show. Fannie Lou Hamer, a Mississippi sharecropper, at the Democratic National Convention in 1964. (If I can find a longer version that doesn't have the news guy cutting in, I'll replace this one. Let me know if you find it first.)

Here's the full audio. Around 3:23 is where you can pick up where the video left off.
