My uncle was the prison chaplain at Brushy Mountain and he said James Earl always claimed innocence and being framed

This was really well done! Very well worth the twenty minutes for that "byte" of history. Thanks! P.S. Loved the guy on the bike at 12:36 "It's so good, it'll damn near make you run a red light!" Man, that's an unique/cool way to say something is excellent!!! When I go to visit Memphis one day, I'll be sure to see that Jone's BBQ shop!

This should be required for every high school student. I worked for Reverand Leon Sullivan for many years.

Ironic that the separation of their voices at the beginning of the video seems far greater than the visual.

He originally wasnt susposed to be in Memphis that day. A black man was killed while sitting on the back of a trash truck. Lighting had hit the truck causing it to start up, the men were crushed to death. The workers lives was finally exposed when a black man who was a union leader took some white women to see how bad the workers lived. Theyd come home with maggots and their homes were unlivable. Its sad that two men died.

What’s the secret to this recipe? What I put in it.

[@Ironfurnaceroom]

Yeah, I liked that too:) (Smart Alek answer:) Probably gets asked that a lot)

They keep calling the wrong people African-American! As much as they love talking about Egypt, you'd think someone would realize it means Memphis! Y'all need to stop looking across the ocean at theme park Memphis, and pay attention to where y'all live, America: Oldest continent on earth. Y'all really gotta read better books.

MLK would be ashamed today.

How would they feel today? (To see so many if their youth generations unaware that living through their Ego Mind finds them adapting the very attitudes that Dr King and these early Examples of Mature Minded People were extorting to bring to a Harmony so Black Americans could experience the assimilation into the USA Society.) The ignoring of teaching about our need to use our Higher Mind and from Conscious in Thought, rather than reacting from the Lower or Ego Mind. Black or White, it makes no difference, it is the state of Mind and Thoughts that are the absolute influence on Everything. Teach the Choice of Thoughts and Teach the "Universal Law of Attraction", *this is where all of us have our true Power and how we achieve our desires, experience the desired journey. The human body is the vessel, our True Self is Eternal and has the "+" to truly live in joy and have our desired life journey experiences. All of us, are so very equal and make the same mistakes, but can make the Individual Successes we so desire. It is all about the Higher Mind and the Law of Attraction ... Focus on the desire, not undesired, feel the fact 9f your worthiness, and establish alignment with the Soul/Highers Self/Inner Being, ... anything one can Imagine is absolutely yours, with your Thoughts streaming from your Higher Mind 😘 Be your Desired You - just see it, feel it, Believe it ... and Know it
