Twice bitten

On this day in 1964: The same day the FBI found the bodies of civil rights workers James Chaney, Andy Goodman and Mickey Schwerner, singer Harry Belafonte heard SNCC needed at least $50,000 to survive. His friend and fellow activist Sidney Poitier delivered $70,000 that they raised to the Mississippi Delta. When they landed at the Greenwood airport after dark, a pickup truck filled with white men pursued and rammed them. The two performers made it to their destination, delivering the money to keep Freedom Summer going. “We knew if we never did another thing together,” Belafonte recalled, “This was to be forever cherished.”
