History
The fair was founded in 1858. In the 1950s, Medgar Evers led efforts to racially integrate the event.[2]
Fairgrounds
The fairgrounds cover over a hundred acres in downtown Jackson. The Mississippi Coliseum is part of the complex.

gollark: > If you had to pay 5 cents (or equivalent crypto, whichever is preferred) for every email you sent, would you?I would not. There's the obvious issue of mailing lists which you *want* to receive, but more significantly this would make me... not use email at all... since I don't have any work-y reasons to use it and can reach my friends by various other channels.
