She worked on SNCC projects throughout the South, first in SNCC's national office in Atlanta, and then in Mississippi, Alabama and Southwest Georgia. In 1964 she moved with the national office to Greenwood, Mississippi, during "Freedom Summer." In 1965 she left SNCC's Lowndes County, Ala. project to be the office manager for the successful first campaign of Julian Bond (then SNCC's Press Director) for the Georgia House of Representatives. She also organized a residential freedom school which brought together young people from civil rights struggles in both the North and South in order to talk about common concerns and strategies.
Ms. Richardson lectures nationally about the Movement and the making of Eyes on the Prize. She has also appeared on "Nightline" (ABC-TV), "Nightwatch" (CBS-TV), and various other news shows in opposition to the image of the African American community and the Movement portrayed in the film Mississippi Burning. She frequently talks with young people about the Movement, its values and their relevance to issues we face today.
She also conducts teacher training workshops focused on the series and its application to multiple disciplines.
