Robert Parris Moses, a civil rights activist who was shot at and endured beatings and jail while leading Black voter registration drives in the American South during the 1960s and later helped improve minority education in math, has died. He was 86.
Moses, who was widely referred to as Bob, worked to dismantle segregation as the Mississippi field director of the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee during the civil rights movement and was central to the 1964 Freedom Summer in which hundreds of students went to the South to register voters.
I never knew that there was (the) denial of the right to vote behind a Cotton Curtain here in the United States.
The young civil rights advocate tried to register Black people to vote in Mississippi s rural Amite County where he was beaten and arrested. When he tried to file charges against a white assailant, an all-white jury acquitted the man and a judge provided protection to Moses to the county line so he could leave.
In 1963, he and two other activists â James Travis and Randolph Blackwell â were driving in Greenwood, Mississippi, when someone opened fire on them and the 20-year-old Travis was hit.
