Fannie Lou Hamer


Quote: "I am sick and tired of being sick and tired"


She is tired of working too much and nobody changing nothing and everything is the same. So she is done with working and protesting if everything goes back to being the same and her not being able to accomplishe what she really wanted which was being a outspoken advocate for civil rights for African Americans.

Manifest Destiny


Manifest Destiny was the idea in the 19th century.The U.S. was clearly intented by God to have all the land between the Atlantic and the Pacific Ocean. I think this picture represents this concept by the way the godish is flying over the land. As her ordering the land between those two oceans. And a peace way, I think that it's in a peace way because she is wearing white and it's a very peaceful and quiet color.
