Nothing for sale: where to find honest Hamer resources

FannieLouHamer.info sells no shirts, prints or souvenirs. Here is where to find free teaching materials and how to buy books about Hamer from libraries and presses.

In short

This site sells nothing: no clothing, prints, posters, books or souvenirs. Everything here is free to read and print. If you want something to keep, borrow or buy a good book about Hamer, such as her collected speeches from the University Press of Mississippi, or visit a museum store run by a public institution.

What can I get for free?

Every page on this site, including the lesson plan, the calendar of dates and the Ruleville guide, is free to read, print and share with a link. Teachers can copy the lesson plan for classroom use.

Where can I find books and recordings?

Your public or school library is the best place to start, and the reading list names the most useful books. Her collected speeches are published by the University Press of Mississippi, and freedom songs are available from Smithsonian Folkways. Buying from publishers, museum stores and local bookstores keeps money with the people who produce and preserve this history.

Why is this page called merchandise.html?

An earlier site on this domain sold items at this address. We do not, and we are not connected to that store. We kept the address so links still work.

Questions readers ask

Do you sell Fannie Lou Hamer T-shirts or posters?

No. We have no store and no partners. Items sold elsewhere are not connected to this site.

Is it legal to sell products with Fannie Lou Hamer's name or picture?

That depends on the product, the image and the law where it is sold. Photographs are often copyrighted, and names and likenesses may be protected. Ask a lawyer before you produce anything for sale.
