About this listen

 In this episode, Gayle discusses the chilling 1964 murders of civil rights workers James Chaney, Andrew Goodman, and Michael Schwerner in Mississippi. What began as a search for justice turned into a symbol of hatred, cover-ups, and the long-term resilience of the civil rights movement. We unravel the timeline, the conspiracy, and the legacy left behind of these brave men against a cruel world.
