When looking at all the events that took place during the time frame of the Civil Rights movement, many took place. The beatings, murders and various other horrible actions took place on those who were fighting for their rights. The one that took the cake so to speak, was the time bomb that exploded in the basement of the Sixteenth Street Baptist Church. This time bomb killed four African American girls, and injured twenty-two other children in the act. That morning those children were just attending Sunday school, they were not doing anything wrong, yet some lost their lives as well as some left injured. It was a room full of eighty children, who would ever think to set a bomb off in a room full of children attending Sunday school? It was only one of the wrong things that had been happening to the African Americans of that time. An individual by the name of Fannie Lou Hamer, an African American woman who went to the court house to register to vote. Following her attempt she was fired from her job, arrested and severely beaten. After this incident, she later joined the SNCC, and became one of the most passionate activist under the organization. For many people Fannie became the heart and center for the organization. If I were in Fannie’s shoes, I would’ve done just the same as her. Although she was arrested, fired and beaten, she still continued to do everything she could to make a change to the world she was in, she joined an organization that she knew by joining she could make a difference in. If I were her, I would not have let what happened to me, put me down or make me stop. Just as her, I would have went and found any way I could’ve to continue what I was foreshadowing to do. As in her shoes, I would’ve put up a little bit more of a fight, when the police arrested me, I would have cooperated, but following I would have tried to cause a case. A case being that of suing the police department for arresting an African American woman just for simply trying to vote, because in my eyes perhaps a civil case might have made a significant change in that time. In every other aspect of her, I would not have done anything differently, she was an amazing woman, who went to make many, many important changes in the world of equal and civil rights.
