Fannie Lou Hamer One-Woman Show with Author Pamela D. Marshall

Don’t forget to spring your clocks forward one hour for Daylight Savings Time on March 9, 2025.

Then, come join the Writers Alliance at 2:30 p.m. for a treat when author Pamela D. Marshall presents “The Speeches and Writings of Fannie Lou Hamer: A One Woman Show.”

“As a writer,” Marshall said, “creating the Fannie Lou Hamer One-Woman Show taught me the power of weaving research and authentic voices and songs into storytelling. By delving into Mrs. Hamer’s speeches and legacy, I found a way to bring history to life, evoking emotion and inspiring action.

“For writers, this process demonstrates how to transform research into compelling narratives that resonate deeply with audiences, creating work that informs and moves people to think, feel, and act. I hope this performance inspires you to uncover powerful stories waiting to be told in your own work.”

A seasoned journalist, public policy advisor, and keynote speaker, Marshall’s expertise earned her an interview at the White House during the Obama Administration.

Marshall is also a Peace Ambassador and Executive Director of At The WELLness Network/Publishing.

Inspired by her journey and the fresh perspectives of her grandson BJ, Pamela crafts stories that nurture young minds. She weaves themes of forgiveness, environmental stewardship, and emotional well-being into her works, which include The Art of Forgiveness: An Expression of Peace and children’s books BJ and The Majestic Forgiveness Tree and BJ’s Big Mission, Easie Turtle’s Healing, Heals Earth.

She resides in Florida with her husband, Scott, and delights in being “Beanie” to BJ.
