The Royall House & Slave Quarters invites you to an exciting conversation with historian Dr. Keisha N. Blain on her new book about Fannie Lou Hamer. “Until I Am Free” challenges us to listen to Hamer, a former sharecropper who was a working-poor and disabled Black woman activist and intellectual of the civil rights movement, as we grapple with contemporary concerns around race, inequality, and social justice. Blain is a historian of the 20th-century United States specializing in African American history, the modern African diaspora, and women’s and gender studies.
