Mamie Lang Kirkland was seven years old when she fled Ellisville, Mississippi in 1915 with her mother and siblings as her father and his friend, John Hartfield, escaped an approaching lynch mob. John Hartfield returned to Mississippi in 1919 and was killed in one of the most horrific lynchings of the era. Mamies son, Tarabu, had grown up hearing stories of John Hartfield, but didnt know if his mothers stories were fact or folklore until one day in 2015. Tarabu discovered an article describing Hartfields murder before a crowd of 10,000 spectators. For over 100 years Mamie vowed never to return to Mississippi. Yet with Tarabus remarkable find, he urged his mother to finally confront her childhood trauma by returning to Ellisville.

Like many of the six million African Americans who left the Deep South, Mamies story is a testament to the courage and hope of her generation.
