Cathee Weiss Documentary Producer Wednesdays in Mississippi

February 4, 2012 By Linda Sherman Leave a Comment

Cathee Weiss is a serious woman of conviction to watch. As you know I appreciate and support powerful women. Wednesdays in Mississippi is a documentary about women dedicated to a cause taking risks to work for change during an important historical time in 1964. I recently attended an event to introduce the producers of Wednesdays in Mississippi.

She managed the non-fiction division of Mozark Productions where she oversaw and collaborated on numerous nationally recognized political films, including the 1992, 1996 and 2000 National Democratic Convention films, including “The Man From Hope.”

The Film

The only civil rights project run by a national women’s organization, Wednesdays in Mississippi (WIMS) was the brainchild of National Council of Negro Women President, Dorothy Height and her close friend, Polly Cowan. Their plan brought Black and White women from Northern cities like Boston, New York, and Chicago into Mississippi in 1964 during Freedom Summer.
