Harrowing and shocking, even if we know
OJT6 August 2023
Warning: Spoilers
At the time of writing 16% of the votes on this documentary is a 1/10, which in itself is appalling.
This is a harrowing and strong telling of a mother's fight for justice about the lynching and hanging of her 17 year old son Lennon Lacy in an area known for its lynching back in the old days.
The Police and the law enforcement sites suicide even if it's obvious it's not due to his injuries. Still this is the case.
"The more that know about this, this is my way of grieving." That's what the mother says to this.
The movie is a hard watch. The community is dealing with it, and it's very difficult, because it's a big and ugly chunk of the town's history. A strong documentary about a ton of unjustice.
