During Freedom Summer, the bodies of three lynched civil rights workers (James Chaney, Michael Schwerner, and Andrew Goodman) were found, after disappearing more than a month before. The Civil Rights Movement Veterans (CRMvet.org) website provides a detailed description of the arrest of these young men, the complicity between state "law enforcement" and the Klan, their murder, and the fight to have their bodies found, autopsied, and the murderers charged:http://bit.ly/gwDSHu Also see the film Neshoba:http://neshobafilm.com/ For a list of more martyrs in the fight for democracy in Mississippi, see:http://www.crmvet.org/mem/msmartyr.htm
