‘Weaves together archival footage and contemporary interviews to chronicle how residents of an Alabama county secured their right to vote in the 1960s.‘

‘Looks back at a 1960s voting-rights campaign in Alabama that gave rise to a national movement for Black power.‘

‘An invaluable addition to the story of how much work was required to access the ballot box, even after blood was spilled on a bridge in Selma and the ink was dry on the Voting Rights Act.‘

‘Electrifies a too-long-hidden story about voting rights in the rural county right outside Montgomery, Alabama.‘

‘Timely and relevant nowadays in the face of current attempts to disenfranchise Black voters.‘

‘Rare archival footage is intertwined among the film’s historical narrative with an all-too-rare grace.‘

‘Gandbhir and Pollard are able to lay their hands on some startling footage, but paint an equally vivid picture around it as they interview those that are still standing today in Lowndes, no doubt because they stood up for themselves.‘

‘The information presented in “Lowndes County” is absolutely vital.‘
