Clarence Norris was the only "Scottsboro Boy" alive in 1976: He received an unconditional pardon from Governor George Wallace and expressed his sorrow that the other 8 men-all dead- were not present. For complete information on this fascinating miscarriage of justice, read "The Last of the Scottsboro Boys" by Clarence Norris and Sybil Washington; and also "Scottsboro, An American Tragedy" by historian Dan T. Carter.
That's kind of ironic that Clarence Norris, an obvious victim of racial bigotry, was pardoned by none other than Alabama Governor George Wallace, a man who was himself considered one of the worst racists in United States history, a man who stood in the doorway of a college to keep black youths from entering and registering at the institution, the same Governor who said "Segregation now, segregation tomorrow, and segregation forever!" This was from Wallace's inaugural address after being elected Governor. The speech was written by Asa "Ace" Carter, another notorious bigot, who ran his own, more militant version of the Ku Klux Klan, which he called the Original Confederate Knights of the Ku Klux Klan. One of the worst atrocities this group committed was when they kidnapped a black man and castrated him. (One of them kept the victim's scrotum as a souvenir.) Carter also had his own radio show on a local station, on which he often spewed out his racist beliefs, which included the charge that the entire Civil Rights movement was financed, supported by, and spurred on by the Communist Party. Asa Carter somehow dropped out of site in the middle of the 1960s. A few years later, he allegedly returned, insisting that he was actually a Native American (Indian) named Forrest Carter, who wrote a novel called "The Education Of Little Tree," which was about an Indian boy who's sent to a white boarding school run by the U.S. Government, where he's forced to abandon his Native American background and culture, and to accept the white man's ways. For years after that, the book was "required reading" in many American schools since it was the story of a non-white person who has to resist the prejudices of white people. In addition, "Forrest Carter" also wrote a western novel entitled "The Rebel Outlaw," which was about a Southern farmer during the Civil War whose farm is attacked by brutal Union troops who burn his farmhouse with his son trapped inside and rape and kill his wife. In revenge, the farmer joins a Confederate guerilla band to fight the "Yankees." After the end of the war (and the defeat of the South), the farmer goes solo, wandering the West, looking for and killing the former Union soldiers who had invaded his farm and destroyed his family. This story formed the basis for the movie "The Outlaw Josey Wales" (1976), starring and directed by Clint Eastwood. Some believe that Asa Carter changed his name and pretended to be a Native American so nobody would know who he really was. Others say he wrote "The Education Of Little Tree" to make up for his racist past, or that he wrote this book and "The Rebel Outlaw" because, to him, these were stories about people who were unfairly treated by the U.S. Government, just the way white Southerners like him felt that the Government was unfairly treating them by insisting that their segregated schools were to be integrated at once, and that their white children had to attend school and eat with black students. "Forrest Carter," for his part, always denied that he was Asa "Ace" Carter, professional bigot, former KKK leader, and hatemonger, insisting that he was, indeed, Forrest Carter, non-white Native American, and author of novels with more liberal ideas, especially about race.
Mrs. Williams thank you for providing additional info. This is my first time seeing this, my Grandma was alive when this happened and I wish I could have talk to her about this, this is way before my birth. Today in 2023 I first found out about this.

@@bmjesus08 wow, thanks for asking. 1619 was when the first enslaved Africans arrived in what would become the United States at Point Comfort, Virginia. As such, 1619 essentially marks the beginning of the black community in the United States.
At least she finally told the truth, that neither she nor Victoria Price had been raped at all, that it was all a lie invented to distract attention from the fact that they were commiting vagrancy by stowing away on the train where the "rape" allegedly occurred.
There was a 1976 Made-For-TV movie about the case entitled "Judge Horton And The Scottsboro Boys," which focused partly on a judge who dismissed the "guilty" verdict against one of the Scottsboro Boys on the grounds that there was no real proof that the two "victims" were actually raped. It was during this trial that one of the women, Ruby Bates, recanted her original testimony. She now said that neither she nor her friend, Victoria Price, were sexually assaulted at all, that they only made up the rape story to avoid being arrested for vagrancy. Nevertheless, the jury convicted the defendant anyway and recommended the death penalty, perhaps because of an inflammatory closing argument by the prosecutor not only attacking the accused, but also his lawyer, Samuel Leibowitz, a prominent New York City attorney who just happened to be Jewish, and whom the prosecutor accused of trying to "buy Alabama justice with Jew money from New York." It's no wonder Judge Horton threw out the conviction. It wasn't the first time that bigoted remarks such as this were openly spoken in front of the various juries in the Scottsboro trials. In the first trial, the prosecutor blatantly declared to the jury "Guilty or not, let's get rid of these n****rs!" In another trial, the counselor for the state tried to frighten the jury by telling them that if they didn't render a verdict of "guilty," then their mothers, wives, sisters, sweethearts, etc, "won't be safe from the n****r rapists!" When the defense attorney objected to such a prejudicial statement, the prosecutor told the judge that he wasn't doing anything wrong. "You know, your honor," he said, "that I make the same speech in every n****r rape trial." Not surprisingly, the judge overruled the defense lawyer's objection.
This is horrible of course. But my teacher just assigned me this video as an edpuzzle... and I HAD to look it up to say.. thank you for including skyrim music. Nostalgia!
😡Wait...you saw the Carol Anderson video and even added the clip with the facts to your video and you still got info wrong in this video!!!??? SHAME ON YOU! 😡
Sexual harassment/rape is so linked to lynching or should I say "destroying people's life". Don't get me wrong, crime needs to be punished but this one is the most abused and its crazy society can't see how much damage it has done. It's also interesting that back then and now, newspapers(the media) seem to always get what they want.
The all white jury is: 1. NATO members, 2. Western press, 3. professors in the know, 4. celebrities, even Harry (who I empathized with) and Bill who not only claims to know my family, but wants to be a part of it. That includes love, sacrifice, protecting jealously, royalty, a spine, principle and doing what is best for the family NOT the White race and supremacy first and family after. That is why I was never a duck in the first place. My Name is forever Nandi. I have nothing to give to anyone but my son.
I want to watch this but the piano hurts my ears really bad is there a version with no piano so i can hear their story please? Please remake a new video with no piano my ears are very sensitive and it made me wince in pain when it started.
Then we just have evil in this world man I just when I heard about it it broke my heart to even think that these little boys would go through something so horrific and have to be electrocuted for something that they did not do it is the most hearts tearing thing it just tears it me to Steven think that this could happen back in the day and how could you be so cruel to lie on people that didn't bother you or cause you any harm but when they found out that they didn't do anything wrong and these women were lying why the hell did they get put their y'all know because the judges are able to they're probably burning in hell for what they did they were wrong to put them boys like that to death they had no right to take their lives they just had no right to even make them boys go through all that he'll but I think everybody over there I think all the judges and and all the Supreme Court
It was horrific to just hear about something like that but Jesus saved your Jesus saves and I believe that if they knew Jesus this thing wouldn't have been have nothing got with her would have protected them boys if they knew Jesus as a lord and savior the Lord would have protected them and none of this would have happened to them
Today, all it takes to lose everything you have and worked for, is for a woman to say that he did something anything. I will say that there have been times when things did happen to women. You have to rethink saying hello to them because you don't know what type of mood their in, cause they can say he was sexualy inappropriately speaking to me, and know matter what he will then be looked at like a criminal or get fired over a lie. This is all it takes to get a man fired, inappropriate sexual behavior, so what exactly is this, this is what makes for a unbalanced work place. Here's something to think about, if you are interested in getting to know a woman you work with and you do hook up but it turns out that it's not worth it for what ever the reason is but she doesn't feel the same way all she has to do is go to their boss and tell lies and before you can defend yourself your laid off until the matter is worked out, while she plays it up like you really did something wrong. Men watch your back because it could happen to you
At the end there was no justice, they did jail time for no reason.
Yes . Those women deserved to be beat to death for such serious malicious lies.
@@jessestewart169 dumbass this was in 1930 they're all dead
