I went to #Vicksburg, Miss. to learn about the great #CivilWar battle, but what I found out was a more despicable part of its history.

Happy 71st birthday to #MichaelRooker. Most people remember him from that #WalkingDead & #GuardiansoftheGalaxy, but I remember him from #MississippiBurning & #DaysofThunder. I'm not one of those Walking Dead freaks & thank goodness.
Happy birthday Michael Rooker, born April 6, 1955.

Reparations now. #GhostsOfMississippi #MississippiBurning
Folk, dvs. hvite menn & Kvinner, som trodde de være noe særlig, anså ikke svarte mennesker som likeverdige mennesker. På alvor. Hele dagen.
Så til de grader faktisk, at svarte personer ble fengslet for å lese. I feil bok. På feil sted.
Ikke sjelden ble de også lynsjet.

Un Mississippi en feu, un Gene Hackman impérial et une haine qui suinte par tous les pores. Ma critique de MISSISSIPPI BURNING (1988) est en ligne. Le cinéma d'Alan Parker, c'est autre chose que les comédies françaises poussives, non ? #CKMZ #MississippiBurning #Cinema

This is applied epistemology. A film that remains apolitical is a weapon left on the shelf.
When you dismantle the viewer’s framework for justifying the status quo, you aren't just making art, you are rewriting the operating system of their political reality.

Any ethical U.S. Senators interested in listening to the first chapter of this episode of This American Life? Might be compelling to play at an upcoming Noem hearing for the entire world to hear. #MississippiBurning #ICantBreathe #ICE @60minutes.bsky.social @propublica.org @indexoncensorship.org
Just watched #mississippiburning Whst an amazing movie detailing how, in spite of pure evil, good Americans eventually win over and rain down havoc on this who do wrong.
Looking forward to the real life sequel. 😉

Remembering Gene Hackman on his birthday (January 30, 1930 – February 18, 2025) 💙🕊
#MississippiBurning
Happy 96th birthday to #GeneHackman. He managed to avoid being typecast from his #Superman role unlike Christopher Reeve thanks to other films like #BonnieandClyde, #Hoosiers, #MississippiBurning, and his 2 Oscar winning roles in #TheFrenchConnection and #Unforgiven.

They tried to burn our Synagogue in Portland, but failed, thankfully. I'm not tired. I'm ready to fight!
Mississippi trying to kill more Jews!

Goodman and schwerner. #MississippiBurning
Mississippi officials haven't ensured that laws of the state were executed without prejudice against Black citizens since before the #MississippiBurning was released. Nice try!
Respect. Thank you for remembering.🙏🏻💙🥺

Sunset scene in the movie Mississippi Burning. On the right is a wooden hut with a light on, and a bush outside on the right. On the left is a large tree. All of them form black silhouettes like shadows. The movie was released in 1988.
After that, I watched #MississippiBurning (sad true story). Darius McCrary looks so small and cute (Eddie Winslow from Family Matters). Willem Dafoe (Goblin from Spider-Man) is also young there and now he's 70. Damn, time is running fast. PS: Don't watch if you're mentally weak!
Dick Gregory forced the FBI to investigate the murders of the freedom riders.
