Mzuri Moyo Aimbaye appears as Fannie Lou Hamer at the 2024 Democratic National Convention to commemorate the 60th anniversary of Fannie Lou Hamer's 1964 DNC Credentials Committee Testimony about her and nine students' brutal beating for simply registering to vote. The 1964 testimony became a significant tipping point to the passage of the Voters' Rights Act of 1965. Additionally, the passage of the Voters' Rights Act caused the largest shift in political party membership in United States politics.
