Check for seized , sticking h/brake cable , if not that try rapping back plate with a hammer to release brake shoes Then remove drum and check shoes and wheel cylinder .

Or you can slacken the bleed nipple and the "wiggle" the drum,
this usually is enough to create enough free play to get the drum off.
'course it will need bled afterwards.
