Reviews

"Dr. Keisha Blain's beautiful prose and infectious passion for uncovering our historical roots tells Hamer's amazing life story. If America truly respected its own roots, they would see a 'Fannie Lou Hamer' defending the US Constitution to include 'We the People.' Dr. Blain unveils Hamer's leadership in this historical documentation, once again demonstrating that when Black women sit down and demand a seat on the bus or simply get let into the room, we spend the next generation demanding a seat at the table. Until I Am Free allows the reader to see a long part of the political and cultural lines from Fannie Lou Hamer to Vice President Kamala Harris."
--Donna Brazile, former chair of the Democratic National Committee
