Home Of The Brave (2004) Synopsis:

"Home of the Brave" is about the only white woman murdered in the civil rights movement in America and why we DON'T know who she is. Told through the eyes of her children, the film follows the on-going struggle of an American family to survive the consequences of their mother's heroism and the mystery behind her killing. Viola Gregg Liuzzo, a white woman who lived in Detroit, was 39 years old, married and the mother of five when she decided, early in 1965, to head south to volunteer with thousands converging in Selma, Alabama for the march on Montgomery, led by Martin Luther King. But shortly after the historic Voting Rights March had ended, she was shot in the head and killed by a car full of Klansmen, while driving on a lone highway. Liuzzo’s death came at a pivotal moment in the civil rights movement, when President Johnson had been fighting an uphill battle to push the Voter’s Rights Act through Congress. Her murder is attributed by historians of the era as providing the final piece of leverage that won Johnson approval of the Act in Congress, which forever changed our political landscape. At this critical time, with just a few weeks before our presidential election, "Home of the Brave" draws attention to the prevalent issue of voting in America, and our duty to exercise our right to vote. This powerful film links the personal and the political, the past and present and has a resonance to our world today.
