Civil Rights Murders
380887 53: Investigators uncover the remains of civil rights volunteers Michael Schwerner, Andrew Goodman and James Chaney under thick red clay of an earthen dam near Philadelphia, Mississippi in July of 1964. The volunteers, all in their 20s, died at the hands of the Ku Klux Klan while working to register black voters during the Freedom Summer civil rights campaign in the segregated South.
