- The Scottsboro Boys were a group of nine black teenagers accused of rape in the 1930s South. The blatant injustice given to them during their trial lead to several legal reforms. Watch as Emory's Associate Professor of African American Studies, Carol Anderson, discusses what happened to these boys both during and after their trial.
I would have passed every class had it been taught by this woman. She’s an incredible story teller
we are in this together hahahahahaha
Yessssss
Exceptional in her delivery!!
Me too. Wish she had been in my university in 1999
They knew it was a lie.... She was just white they up lift themselves and they women
The things my ancestors endured. 😔. It’s a wonder we still exist.
@Diane Keller thanks for those incredible words of support and compassion
No matter how much hate they have in their hearts for us they’ll never kill us off we are The beginning and the end .... but I feel your pain
Diane Keller I think the point you are missing is that in this particular moment in time due to the rise of racism, racially motivated killings of black people and the rise of blatant white supremacy your comment comes off as extremely cold and unloving. You seem to be trying to come off as a “l love everyone equally person”. But your comment comes completely negates what’s going on right now. Please examine yourself.
Facts!!!
We will over come!! Overcome greatly!
If you look into history then you would know that slavery existed for thousands of years. It wasn't just Blacks who were enslaved. Though America did take it to a whole other lvl back then.
I've gotta quit watching stuff like this, I get too heated.
Right I seen enough
I know right
Master me toooo
Because we haven’t done anything about it In the grand scheme of things
@Mz Patt I teach and taught my 2 older sons (28 and 30 years old) to be men. I still have a 14 y/o son in the house who I'm doing the same thing with. My middle son is one step away from playing in the NFL, my 14 y/o is so gifted that I KNOW he WILL play in the NFL. I said all that to say this, we use football to reach out to these kids. That's what I do, specifically that's what we as parents, COLLECTIVELY..
This is history. It needs to be taught to every age appropriate students (middle school age) in our country. I’m a white man and lifelong citizen of Georgia. I’m always digging up history about Georgia. I want to know everything. The good and the bad. No hiding it. It’s part of the fabric woven in to our history. Don’t pull it out. Leave it there for those in the future to learn from.
Professor Anderson told a truly riveting account. I could listen to her speak for hours.
Agreed... good and bad history is history
Ty
Yeah right. This would come out as CRT and whites aren't having that.
I too read a great many books on this country's dealings with Black citizens and Germany's holocaust victims. I sometimes wish I had not delved so deeply. The pain was immense and abided in me far far too long.
Your the kind of cuck that would offer up his white daughter to bbc
How many Black men and Women are in their graves because of false allegations like this. #America
Thousands
Too many! Even worst it's still going on to this day.
Too many yo even count
All of us, cause we are one ... all connected.
TOO MANY TO FUCKING COUNT!!!
I don't know why cases like this are not mandatory learning in every HS civics class.
thats why they dont want to.. it will make blk ppl human..
@Aiden Dollar
No, they don't!!!!!
Stories like this make our people look like humans. For some people it is okay to lie to keep our people oppressed. Sad, but true!
Because if non white people ever learn the truth about white people...They would hate them, and rightfully so! The world is ruled by evil, not truth. Or whites would be banned from the Human family!
Because Civics is no longer taught in HS.
I absolutely love the way her voice sounds
Get over yourself
You sound like a lonely freak.
Carmen Smith i know. She’s a great story teller.
Me too!! Brothers pass for black if you can!!!..When you can pass for black like me you get plenty of pity pu$$y from white and black girls....They fall for that stupid media black crybaby sh@t every time!!! Plus everyone treat you well everywhere because they're afraid you'll go all crybaby and call them a racist.
@@Theboss894 I- that's not her in the video... you know that right??? One works at a University and the other probably hasn't graduated high school.
I'm in tears. Can you imagine this is your sons going through this?
You would want to go in their place...then you would cry and pray for their souls till you left this place...
Where they daddy's at? 😂😂😂
diamondsdrip. It does not matter where they daddies at
They are up against a bunch of white people that hate black people. Their daddies are black men too. What do you mean where they daddies at?
Sister this is nothing, there are horrific stories that have not been told and never will be. The majority of the white people in this country continue to have the same behavior and beliefs they had back then. Is just a little bit more sophisticated. Be aware of there animal nature.
rather this than what happened to channon christian and christopher newsome!

She's doing it on purpose.

But that doesn't stop our men from thinking any different. They love white women.

They're called Karen today
Thurgood Marshall successfully won the case of a Black male employee had sex with his White boss's wife. She claimed rape but it was proven consensual. This was 40's or early 50's.
This system cannot fail those it was never DESIGNED to protect!
4sho
So true
Factsss
The American legal system checked it's self (to a degree) with the fourteenth amendment (making slavery illegal and giving rights to African Americans)... that's why Lincoln was shot in the head.... Seems like you're acting as if black people today have it as bad as we did when American slavery existed, African Americans who were enslaved deserve more respect than that. ijs....
You seem to be a black MAN..... all you're doing is throwing around despair like a boy.. If you have no hope or fight why spread hopelessness.
Exactly!
This is sad. Things have not changed since the 1930s. My heart and prayers go for the families of these teenagers.
Today is March 8 of 2023. DOJ findings as result of Breonna police killing in Louisville, Kentucky.
Content decree granted.
My point, not much has changed.
You are absolutely delusional! ..... STOP WITH THE VICTIM CARD!! AMERICA IS ONE OF THE LEAST RACIST COUNTRIES IN THE WORLD!! We are now at a time when a Black President was elected TWICE AND HE WAS ELECTED BY THE MAJORITY OF THE VOTE...WHITE VOTERS!
King Dubbs you are correct things have not changed since the 1930s and it is very sad indeed.
Things have not changed since 1930? we have a long way to go but thats just a completely false statement fortunately.
You’re comment is extremely stupid. It pisses me off because it disregards everything the civil rights movement has done for more than half a century. You’re saying DR king died almost 50 years ago, and things are exactly the same? You’re very stupid
THIS is History that should be taught in our high schools! If more teachers taught like this woman, history class would be a favorite 💕
The teachers won't because the powers that be said there will not be no "WOKE" agenda's being conducted in these schools. They can't have little black boys and girls running around here with an abundance of knowledge of self.
Too bad they kicked critical race theory out of the south.
@@reginaldrichmond9485 Agree. They didn't want the real history of America exposed nor do they want to correct the fake history books but they want to rmove certain books out of the schools.
@@reginaldrichmond9485 this isn't critical race theory. This is true history.
They wouldn’t put this in the history classes in the south no more.
This professor is a very dynamic speaker! I would love to take her class!
Me too.
i had a teacher like this in middle school..i loved her class
I don’t care how old this is them lady’s need to do time
Exactly! As DL Hughley said " Injustice plus time does not equal justice."
If it happened somewhere around 1930's they're probably dead.....
Why does god let everyone have justice accept for us?
The women are probably dead by now.
Lol really
This is such a sad story. All the people who were involved in this injustice should have been punished. As much as things have changed, the more they stay the same. Racism still exists!!!
A lot of those people U talk about were in D.C. on JAN 6th saying they have to save their country. Ignorance still exists!!!
This is our country too. We had no choice in the matter...slavery! We helped build this country and continue to contribute so very much to America.
Yes you are so right but still there are some white Americans who seems to think that we have no rights regardless to how much we have contributed to the building of this country it's a shame that a few people can wait so much havoc on a lot of other people who are also American citizens ❤️ to all and may we learn to live in peace with one another and respect
Why can't these women that lie about rape allegations serve jail ???
E Boogie in those days, they we're white so they got away with it.
E Boogie because ,they got the right paint color.
became they're mostly white women.
E Boogie Because they are white.
Kenyetta Ready I agree, but it still happens today. Case and point my ex-girlfriend at the time he said that A car pulled her over with police lights Undercover and then raped her. She was white she went back home to her boyfriend and said the hundred $50 is gone because the man who raped me took it. Well after the 15 cops came to the scene and she went to the hospital and all of munch of jazz there was video tape surrounding the block where she had said it happened and it never happened and she admitted she lied she just didn't want her boyfriend know she spent $150 on drugs she got a couple months probation and 40 hours of community service. And I also am a Caucasian and I just thought it was completely ridiculous if it would have been a black woman saying that about a white cop that black woman would have been in jail for at least a year here in my town
So many untold events and so much unjust!
I know right, glad we are living in the internet age, we can see all what has happened to us.
@@billsmlth5381 you ain't black. Serving justice isn't wanting people to pity you. I'd rather here this than let it go unheard and have people always think black people are horrible, and white peeps are always the victim.
I don't even know what you were trying to accomplish with that stupid comment, but excuse yourself David.

Martinsville Seven, The Scottsboro Boys, & Central Park 5 are some of the most egregious acts the judicial system has allowed to happen in this country. THIS is reality, OUR REALITY & it’s sadly still happening today. 😓
Lipstick Love never heard of martinsville 7, thanks I’m about to look that up. Have you heard of groveland 4 their story is just as tragic.
It happens so frequently that those who miss out on it have to make up crimes so they fit in. 🙄
What's really egregious is the fact that so many black children here in usa are born out of wedlock; with no righteous family structure. What's even more egregious is the FACT that our black women in usa are least likely to ever be married because black men prefer white women and 3rd world immigrants. Makes stories like this a joke.
@@littlemomma6363 Well said. The fact you're a black woman makes it even better.

Ashley Petersen You are living evidence that the Whites of today are as guilty as your ancesters and enjoy this system of Babylon's false prophecy Christians of White privilege by Black oppression.
She has a way of telling a story.The things we went through 😭
The least we can do for these innocent young boys is to make their voices heard and their stories known. I encourage anyone and everyone to share this on their social media. Doesn't matter if it's and "old" case. When you think about it, the case isn't THAT old. It's been 81 years since this happened. Which makes it so much more disturbing.
There are centenarians who are still alive today and remember this case. During Covid, there was a living victim from the Tulsa massacre who recounted her story.
U are so right, and I have shared it. It I'd jarring and when she said the last one wad released in, she thinks 1980 I was in 10th grade ur right this was not not so long ago
Exactly!!
This was literally a Hate crime. To think for a moment these guys families and communities were terrorized and traumatized by this event, it impacts everything! That’s the part of “I thought racism was over” people just ignore. The pain and the wounds go on long beyond the incident. Whew!! So harsh 😥
Agree 💯
I love this woman speaking facts.
We are still here. Same injustice, different times. Nothing has ever changed.
How did we survive this far???
@Uriah Peisert you’re?
no you have it a lot better.
O bullshit
no. that's definitely not true
This makes me want to puke, I was 14yrs old when I first studied this and felt that same feeling in my stomach then too. Protecting yourself from maybe a year of jail time by destroying multiple ppls lives with life in prison or death makes you worse than evil.
I’m just curious how can you live knowing your ancestors heck you’re mother was apart of racism smh and may have had slaves and killed many many innocent black people? In every culture you all are secretly considered devils ,

She tells stories with such dedication and passion. You almost feel like you’re there witnessing it unfold. Sounds like the Central Park 5
I was thinking exactly the same thing. Unfortunately this will never stop NEVER!!
Right!
Those r⁴p¹st boys?
The false accusers and all involved should be prosecuted and jailed. They should feel the hurt, pain and lost years like the young mean falsely accused. When the crimes were reversed, no one one was prosecuted.
Literally
And after that Central Park 5 the cycle is so sad
Oh no there were plenty more like this wayyyyy before then single black boys and groups of them...thats at the nowaday happening.

Our history is always interesting especially when it's taught truthfully and we tell it!
This is very sad I feel for these young Men and their familes

Same thing happened to 4 boys in Groveland, Florida. Look it up. It happened around 1940. We have a serious issue in the government system as a whole. People who were brought up to hate. You’re not born that way, it’s taught. Just because someone skin is different. Just because someone’s hair texture is different. Just because someone speaks a different language. This country will always be divided for those reasons. A nation divided, will always suffer and it will fall.
This Associate Professor Carol Anderson is one of the best speakers (storyteller) she has the GIFT of demanding your attention to whatever subject she is speaking on I could sit and listen to her talk all day.
Alabama,Mississippi, Louisiana, Georgia, South Carolina, Texas and Oklahoma. These states should be giving every living Afro-American who lived during the Jim Crow Era reparation. What these poor people had to endure was outright appalling. These people were civil rights heroes. Some of the name you may never hear about,but there presence thru all that adversity have to applauded.The Scottsboro boys is part of black history many of our young generation do not know about.So when you come across an elderly Afro-American and they said they grew up and lived thru Jim Crow be kindly and give them a hug and a thanks. They made it easy for you.

Almost every day now, I learn of another episode of American history - that at one time was hidden from sight. A history that clarifies the unending and unbearable suffering of the Blacks - the only immigrants ever forced to come to this country. The knowledge and increasing awareness of what they suffered is both difficult and painful to realize, and yet, never fails to make one's heart ache. We can be so cruel to one another. I am glad that the Black protests are only seeking justice - for they also have every reasonable justification to seek revenge. But they won't, since they know it far beneath the dignity they have always possessed, though it has not always been acknowledged. I cheer them on, and I actively join in their well-deserved and ever-approaching equality. Thank you for posting this!!
Thank you for your emotive, empathetic take. America may not be completely full of dim racialized yanks after all.

Carol Anderson, Associate Professor of African American Studies, definitely has a narrative talented ability to captivate an audience. For example, she told the story about the “Scottsboro Boys” with such detaitled and articulate enough to keep the audience focusing on the materials facts of the circumstances of the injustice of the Scottsboro Boys. She kept my focus on what she wanted me to get out of the story. Prayers for the families and the surviving defendant(s). Thanks for sharing! 👍🏾

Thank you so much for keeping this up so I can at least have her in my classroom in a small way!
I used this documentary clip when I taught To kill the Mockingbird too.She is truly amazing.
This is a great story teller. There is a lot of personal feelings but the facts of the case and the horrible news to have a child not come home to your family Alabama laws is horrible failure. The times of slavery is worser. Children suffer because of lies. Supreme court can never right the life black men. To teach a child to hide there brilliance to live is common from slavery. They could not speak up for themselves.

I'm in Zambia, Southern Africa. Everytime I listen to these racist incidences in USA I can't understand how seemingly well educated African Americans can even suggest there is no reason to pay reparations to black people - never mind slavery, but just the violent racism that has been going on for centuries!!
Yes indeed
Still no reason. People living today aren't responsible for people hundreds of years ago.
@@antarcticorb9197 the government must right their wrong. Andrew Johnson vetoed the 40 acres and a mule, huge error. The United States pays Israel millions or billions annually & they never sent a single one of them to any gas chamber. There's no going around it. We can try to skirt around it & rationalize why the United States shouldn't pay. The proof is in the pudding. Since these United States refuses to pay the descendants of slaves & did not stop persecuting the descendants of slaves (one piece of evidence is this video)this Nation will be destroyed & the descendants of slave owners will go into captivity according to Joel 3.

I am VERY protective of my four children (ages 12, 16, 18 and, 20). Even though my wife and I are sometimes ridiculed as "helicopter parents", I think that Black parents HAVE to be MORE vigilant given the historic AND present-day hostility towards Black boys and men (even by other Blacks). This reminds me of the "Central Park Five" during the late 80s. 😔😡💔 May God guide us!🙏🏾
I applaud you and your wife. I'm the same way with mine. 🙏
I understand where you are coming from. Well, maybe not completely as I am a middle aged white guy. I think if I had black children I would want them to live in the Bay Area. I have lived all over the US and this palace is made up from cultures from from all over the world and our police departments mostly reflect this mixed culture.
Amen we must protect our kind. Until the day comes that these devils cease
May the Almighty's judgment be fitting for all the evil done to his people. 🙏🏽😭
You do realise he is the one putting his people through the “evil” you’re talking about because of punishment for breaking the laws?
This woman had the grace and the knowledge of telling this horrendous yet interesting story of the 9 boys.
I experienced a similar situation in 2013 and 2015. There was witnesses and video evidence that proved my innocence. The police never documented the witnesses and altered the video evidence. The only reason I’m out is because I acted as my own attorney. America was never great!
nor U.K
I’m sorry that happened to you! And I’m glad you’re free!
The same happened to me, the cop thats sworn to serve and protect even took the stand and LIED! Luckily I'm a smart cookie and happened to have the proof that the cop was Lying. If you're BLACK NEVER TRUST THE SYSTEM! It was not set up to protect you! Believe that if you don't believe nothing else.
You are so right brother. Which is why I don't participate in the anthem, the pledge of allegiance or the 4th of July!!! It's not for us. It's all lies!!!
Apparently the fact you could act as your own attorney and still be walking free is why America is great. Good luck defending yourself in another country, if you even get to have a trial. I'm sorry people did you wrong, but evidently you won. That IS great.
I wish I had a teacher like you. The way you put the story over is fantastic. Makes me want to not miss a word.
Whoa, it really makes my blood boil hearing this but I'm glad to learn of it. Blacks in Africa and Europe suffered the same atrocities simultaneously...SMH. Thank you for sharing this story because it really opens my eyes to how NOTHING has changed where we're regarded and it's nearly 2020
You are an excellent story teller. This is a tragic, horrific story. Thou shalt not lie. Love one another. Human beings fail all too often. God bless these young men. Thank you for sharing. Racism is so juvenile and evil....we must protect ourselves from being programmed to hate anyone....
Thank you for your work and your explanation. Well done.
My paternal grandfather, who was a very handsome young man and was allowed to work at wealthy plantation homes in Mississippi where he was hit on quite often by the wives and daughters of the rich white men. The darker black men worked the fields, but he was allowed to drive, have a house keys, do invoicing, deposits, and was like the property foreman. At 19, a daughter had him drive her into town and she was wearing extremely skimpy shorts, sandals and a halter top. Yes - women in those days dress like that in the summer. She told him to pull over and tried to kiss him and make him touch her and have sex with her. He said his blood ran cold when she told him that she would threaten to accuse him of raping her if he refused her advances. Luckily, he pleaded to her telling her that she was essentially giving him a death sentence and that he had a loving wife at home and a baby girl who was only a few weeks old. He pulled out her photograph and talked about his family and why he was hired at such a young age to work these expensive homes because of his talents and how he was an asset and could do so much to help her family. He begged her not to do it. She became angry and bitter and made things hard for him with her complaining and punishing him for rejecting her. He quit within a year, got a big plantation restoration job at a famous author’s home, then opened his own business contracting for a new hotel chain.
Thanks for sharing!
what year was that? I've never heard of women wearing skimpy shorts in those days
Why did white people do these things? I am white & I am so sorry that these things happened to any Black person or any person of color. Certain white people can be so IGNORANT, so STUPID, so full of HUBRIS. Please forgive my race for their haughtiness. I will never treat you that way. I apologize for the bigots. For whatever my apology is worth, I am truly sorry.....
@@rwwashington out of that entire story....that is what you ask...🤦🏾♀️
My God.......he escaped a for death sentence sure!🙌🏽
off topic: this woman is an incredible story teller. i would learn so much from her if she told MORE black stories. if she was a historian teacher in school i bet every student would be awake in that class lol. thanks for this information 👍🏿
I learned of the Scottsboro Boys in college in my defense class. I still have the book in my library. Totally Unjust and downright horrendous!! To many cases of wrongly convicted people of color in prison.
12years old?sick
I constantly revisit the tragic story of the Scottsboro boys and never does the pain for me subside. Not only do I feel a great deal for those boys but also for the many, many who are faceless and nameless to us. Those who lingered away in a prison cell until death showed them mercy.
This what Trump really meant about Make America Great Again.
and america is behind him. what year is this 20__
ROBLEEDESIGNS I don't think that is what Trump meant. However, some of his supporters probably interpreted it as such.
Alfred Abraham it's what Trump mean "MakeAmerikkaWhiteAgain"
Yahsararel Ben Yoseph white is right
That's why he hires black people.
I never took time to learn! However the older I get with a granddaughter the more I crave knowledge not for myself but for my family to do better and know better! It is hard to hear but it is so important to understand my history to make better decisions for my family and the world! How can you do better if you don't know any better! I hurt because my lack of confidence in knowledge and wisdom... I'm starting to become free in my own skin therefore my grandbaby will never be locked up mentally! Thanks to people like this! WOWZER hard pills to swallow.. life
I pray to God to give you a lot of beautiful days and you know God loves us so much, So where are you originally from? I am David originally from Spain but currently living in Texas and you?
"Me Too" never talks about stories like these...
They shouldn't sis.. The fact these women used sexual assault as a means of racism shouldn't be used against the Me Too Movement. It's the Civil Rights Movement that led to the Women's Rights Movement.
@@atwilliams8 I strongly disagree with the first part of your statement.
And you're supremely ignorant for even mentioning the two things in the same statement AS IF THE TWO EVENTS HAVE ANYTHING TO DO WITH ONE ANOTHER.
@@wryckingbaul8612 I believe they do have something to do with each other and more importantly I understand fully that history says they both type of incidents are connected. But thank you for your w.s. opinion.
Please do not bring up Me Too in with stories like these. I am sure the sexual victims who are a part of the Me Too movement are horrified not only at the pure, blatant racism, but also at the lie that causes damage to a community of people and damage to true victims of any form of sexual harassment/assault.
Came here after watching when they see us. I remember my high school teacher explaining this case when I was in high school. 10 years later I finally understand the meaning. I cannot imagine the amount of suffering these young mean went through with this injustice.
How can over 500 people give this account of the injustice done to these young boys a thumbs down?How could they be found guilty the second time now knowing that they and the women were not even in the same train car? Crooked justice if you could call it justice. A very blind eye was turned to it in this. Those who did this injustice have paid for their crime in eternal torment unless they had repented before they died.
Thank you for sharing the truth. The hate that grows in my heart cause my ppl have suffered so much. Continue to tell our truth.
Sounds alot like the CENTRAL PARK 5 to me. In another 10 years itll happen again with the same result...no justice.
@GodSon
Same results....how is it worse?
The more things change the more they stay the same.
@GodSon
Did these guys get killed?
When I hear things like this what keeps me from getting mad 😡 is the fact that I know everyone who uses "unjust scales" ⚖ [abusing the law], still has to answer to one more judge who doesn't need any trial at all 🗃💼 and will hold crooked people accountable for eternity. 🔥
I'd love to take a class from her !!! I love teachers like this.
When you spend years in prison for something you didn’t do there’s no way you will ever get that time back. One day these people will be held accountable.
This is a wonderful video for teaching about American History. Carol Anderson does a wonderful job telling about this historical and shameful episode in American History. And the mini-lesson only took 7+ minutes. I am a retired junior high teacher. Would love to have had a video like this one augment the many history lessons that were taught out of a book. I salute Emory University for making this available. Thank you
Scottboro has never been corrected, and I never hear NObody talking about what happen to those young Black men,,
2020 the whole world is now fighting for injustice she should make more interviews.
She is incredible! What an amazing story teller and that passion she shows is just so infections!!! Yet another horrific injustice for our fellow black lives. It's sickening. Just boys being black looking for work😞
Extremely sad. Very heartbreaking. Thank you for sharing this important part of United States history.
Thank you for finding other platforms to teach our history since they are so fearful to teach it in schools today I just love the way you tell it you were meant to be a storyteller.
omg Im disgusted those poor fellas
I can't imagine living under those circumstances. We need to study these horrible times so they NEVER happen again. The people who went thru these abuses need to be remembered for their courage in the face of a truly corrupted system.
Please keep posting - it's important that people understand how easy it is for a government to turn a blind eye, or even participate in racial discrimination.
If you are not free then I am not free. PERIOD.
