"Have we overcome? One man's memories of the Civil Rights Era." by John Chappell
It talks about Shirley's husband, Charles who was a real activist...but not a bad person back then.
Right after they got married, their house was burned down. And I have a feeling Charles' activities might have caused her father's death and that is why she doesn't pursue "justice".
I believe they started out with good intentions but like many causes, were swayed into the reparations game. Yeh, as usual, it's all about money.
Yup and even if their claim was legitimate I'll bet she got all kinds of bogus claimants on the Pigford reparations gravy train. Sherrod traveled all over promoting Pigford

Shirley Sherrod and her outfit got 13 million dollars for an operation that went out of business years ago. Where exactly is that 13 million going to?
