| Description: | On February 1, 1964, in Liberty, Mississippi, Louis Allen, an African American logger, was shot to death in his driveway. The previous evening, Mr. Allen had visited his employer in order to obtain a letter of recommendation as he intended to move the next day to Milwaukee, Wisconsin to seek employment as a truck driver and/or bulldozer operator.
