Freedom Summer of ‘64

Freedom Summer of 1964 played a vital role in shaping the culture of Hattiesburg, the community I call home, as well as impacting the way of life in the entire United States.

Hattiesburg is making strides to make sure that doesn’t happen, and you’re invited to remember with us!
