Plot – Spoilers:
Mississippi Burning is based on a true incident from 1960s United States – three civil rights activists down in Mississippi to register black Americans for voting rights, are pursued on the highway before disappearing. The Klan is believed to be involved and a couple of FBI agents, Ward and Anderson, are sent in to investigate the missing men.
Anderson is a former Sheriff with experience in ground realities, while Ward, his superior, is a stickler for bureau protocol and bookish in his methods. This contrast adds drama to the investigation as the two soon have to deal with hostile local cops, Klan sympathizers, and a reticent black community unwilling to cooperate.
A classic on the topic.

Many negros dislike this film because they feel it portrays them as docile, scared victims. Think about all the other stories that Hollywood has put to film with all the added bullshit story lines for dramatic purposes like “Titanic.” This movie is wildly exaggerated bullshit created by Hollywood to vilify whites in America. This story is a lie. It never happened and nothing similar to it ever happened either. It is the black folks in America that burn buildings and cars, loot stores and attack and rob people constantly, not whites and that is a fact. Every single day in America the 13% commit 98% of all crimes in America. They seem nice in the commercials, don’t they? Don’t be fooled. This movie is Hollywood propaganda.
Hoover boys come down to visit
Niggers, jews, Arabs, Russians, Mexicans……..haven’t they run out of nationalities to hate?
That was really good. Thanks guys!
HAHAH the scene were two FBI agents fight is priceless look at the kennedys one face when he pulls a gun on anderson after being slapped with all five fingers XD But really this whole movie I am trying to figure out which FBI agent is better and after seeing that anderson the wanna be austin powers old dude has the win forsure XD a FBI agent pulling a gun on his partner XD This was a great movie you wanna kill some time and listen to a good old classic tale well this is one for you! I am suprise the black americans did not fight fire with fire and tried to burn down the main hall after all that then again I guess there smart enough not to burn there own city? Honestly though if I would have to believe this by word I would say “nah no way I bet both sides had places burning down” good thing we got the history!
Another classic! Thanks EUM 10/10
