About
The Mississippi Human Rights Report is the work of author, activist, and Jackson native Tom Head. It is not a nonprofit organization, and it is not affiliated with any nonprofit organization. The Report does not accept donations.
The Report represents a three-pronged strategy to promote human rights in Mississippi:
- Highlight specific incidents, issues, or news stories relevant to human rights.
- Educate readers about constructive opportunities for social change.
- Provide links for further research on the relevant topic.
If there is a story that you would like to see the Report cover, you can send an email to tom.head@mississippihumanrightsreport.net.
The Mississippi Human Rights Report logo is the work of Jackson graphic designer Darren Schwindaman, and the site is hosted by the Jackson-based hosting service Zen Creative.







Tom:
I direct a criminal justice reform organization called Friends of Justice. I am currently researching the Curtis Flowers case in Winona and was shocked to learn about Lydia Chassaniol’s address to the CCC. Any idea why the Clarion-Ledger hasn’t picked up on that story? Also, can you give me the name of the best person at the Ledger to complain to about it?
