3rd Annotation
This article is about Fannie Lou Hamer life and what she accomplished. She was one of the first first African American to register to vote. Ms.Fannie Lou not only did she help Americans to vote, she also read the Constitution and used it as a tool.

This web page helped a lot. Not only did they have an article they also have her played her speech at the court. The author writes her conversation with the police officer and it lets me understand what happen that day she went to register to vote.
