On
the night of March 9, 1965, a white Unitarian minister named James Reeb
was attacked on the streets of Selma by a gang of men who resented his
support of black civil rights activists. Reeb died shortly after. Three
men were charged with murder, but were acquitted by an all-white jury.
For over fifty years, the murder remained unsolved. By investigating
this Civil Rights-era cold case, hosts Chip Brantley and Andrew Beck
Grace uncover the truth about the murder of James Reeb. In the process,
they confront the systems of oppression and violence that allowed the
murder to happen and kept it from being solved for so long.
The investigation into Reeb’s death is as much a personal meditation on
our relationship to the past as it is a search for justice that’s been
long delayed.
