Our work on civil rights pioneer Anne Moody is having an impact on communities, churches, prisons, public schools, and universities. The Anne Moody History Project (AMHP) has served as a valuable resource for students, independent scholars, filmmakers, writers, and prominent historians.

A few days ago, I learned of our contribution being recognized in an essay by Dr. Francoise N. Hamlin of Brown University. Hamlin's work is titled, "Historians and Ethics: Finding Anne Moody." The abstract can be viewed here or by following this link:

The essay is published in The American Historical Review.

As AMHP chairman, I can say we are thankful to Hamlin for including us in her research. She mentions the Anne Moody page on this blog, Roscoe Reporting, and a note about the creation of the Anne Moody History Project. It is our hope and our aim that more and more scholars will recognize Moody's legacy and help tell the current -- and future generations -- about her story. Together we can keep her legacy alive.
