I’m looking forward to this documentary about a formidable Black woman— Dorothy Foreman Cotton! The citizenship schools that she, Septima Clark, Bernice Robinson, and others developed changed the game on voter registration during the civil rights movement! https://t.co/KDjdhq9Htu

It was soul stirring. This documentary should be a Netflix special on Sheroes. I respect Dr King but he didn't succeed on his own. Like Hidden Figures.... powerful women never get the recognition they deserve. Please show this for donations and a PBS or Netflix story.

Great documentary on Dr Dorothy Cotton. A great organizer for voting rights and a leading voice at SCLC. Recognizing her is long overdue on the contributions of black women in the civil rights movement. Looking forward to seeing the documentary.
