COUGARS ART CORNER: Drawing of Fannie Lou Hamer

This is a Drawing of Fannie Lou Hamer, an African American Civil Rights activist in the 1960s, who may be best remembered for her effort to bring hundreds of college students of all backgrounds, races and creeds to help with African American voter registration, according to womenhistory.org.

The artist, Conwell Middle Magnet Student N. Holland said that she made this depiction of Fannie Lou Hamer because, according to Ms. C. Green, special education assistant, N. Holland was asked to draw the image of the Civil Rights activist as they were reading a book about her in class.
