10 feb 1931 año - Initial trial of the Scottsboro Boys

Descripción:

The trial was based on 9 black young men who were accused of raping 2 women. Not much evidence was provided in order for them to be actually found guilty, but either way 8 of the 9 were sentenced to death. This showed how unfair the blacks were still treated throughout the United States.
