Like many black people in segregated Mississippi, Fannie Lou Hamer did not receive a good education. She attended school at a one-room schoolhouse on the plantation where her parents (and young Fannie Lou herself) picked cotton. School was only in session three to four months a year, and Fannie Lou was only able to attend from 1924-1930, before she had to drop out. Later, because she was eager to learn, she joined a local Baptist church where they taught her to read The Bible, and that was how she increased her literacy.

Fannie Lou *Hamer* went to school. In 6th grade, she was forced to leave school in order to help her family on the plantations. That's all the information I know about her going to school. Can someone tell me if she eventually finished school though?
