SUMMARY: Living historians spoke with WTV 9 News during a reenactment, emphasizing the importance of keeping history alive. They believe events like these ensure that historical events are remembered and honored, especially when they occur on the actual grounds where the events took place. Anderson, who drove 24 hours from Arizona, and Honeycut, who met his wife through reenacting, both shared their passionate connections to history. Anderson highlighted the immersive nature of live reenactments, while Honeycut reflected on his personal ties and how reenacting brought him closer to history, even influencing his family life. They hope future generations will continue this tradition.
Three living historians spoke with WTVA 9 News during the recent reenactment, sharing how reenacting helps them and others better understand history.
SUMMARY: The public enjoyed activities like line dancing, family karaoke, games, and food trucks at an event commemorating three civil rights activists killed decades ago. The Mississippi Humanities Council unveiled a Freedom Trail marker honoring Michael Schwerner, Andrew Goodman, and James Chaney. These men, killed in 1964 after being released from Neshoba County Jail on suspicion of arson, were found shot near a church where they held meetings. The marker sits across from the old Neshoba County Jail and courthouse where Edgar Ray Killen was convicted. Their sacrifices significantly impacted Mississippi and America, reflecting the state's strong civil rights history.
