When Mississippi Delta youth share their voice... change is coming

Drawing from intimate interviews with high school students and educators in the Mississippi Delta, student shot footage, and archival material, An Army Rising Up is a short documentary that follows the journey of twenty-two high schoolers from the Mississippi Delta as they explore and document their communities’ connections to Civil Rights icons Emmett Till and Fannie Lou Hamer.
