Fannie Lou Hamer - Do Great Things for God Series

Fannie Lou Hamer: A Voice for Justice tells the inspiring true story of Fannie Lou Hamer, a courageous Civil Rights activist who dedicated her life to standing up for the vulnerable and advocating for the rights of unborn children.

Growing up in Mississippi, Fannie, affectionately known as "Mother Hamer," faced immense challenges. She left school at the age of six and lived under the oppressive "Jim Crow" laws. Undeterred, she joined her friends in marching for voting rights, earning the title "the Freedom Fighters." Despite facing imprisonment and brutal beatings, Fannie’s spirit remained unbroken, and she eventually had the honor of speaking before the Houses of Congress in Washington, D.C.

With her tireless efforts, Fannie not only fought for the right to vote but also helped lift people out of poverty and advocated passionately for the rights of unborn children to be born and loved.

This beautifully illustrated children's biography features engaging illustrations and additional facts at the back, including a biographical timeline and historical photos. Part of the Do Great Things For God series, it showcases how God uses ordinary people to achieve extraordinary things, inspiring young readers to stand up for justice and compassion.
