The Central Park Five | Interview | TimesTalks

Ken Burns, co-director and author Sarah Burns, Pulitzer Prize-winning New York Times columnist Jim Dwyer, who covered the case and is interviewed in the film, and the exonerated, including Kevin Richardson, Yusef Salaam, Raymond Santana and Korey Wise -- www.timestalks.com. The panel engages in a conversation about the issues raised by "The Central Park Five," the award-winning documentary about the horrific crime that occurred in Central Park in 1989, the rush to judgment and the lives of those wrongly convicted.

[@kalebpearce8023]

Fat Facts

[@MrUnsprung]

Don't be so hard on him. EVERYONE (media and public) had it in for the CP5 in the beginning. There was NO ONE on their side when it started. The police caught these kids and convinced themselves they were guilty, invented a story of how the rape occurred, and got confessions from all of them telling them all the while that if they just confessed they could go home! The media had been snowed by the police and DA. Now in retrospect, after the real rapist confessed, it seems obvious that the police/DA ignored faulty timelines, lack of DNA evidence, lack of non-participant witnesses, disparities in the five confessions, and the fact that juveniles had been aggressively interrogated for up to 30 hours without food or a lawyer. But confessions, even under highly questionable circustances carry A LOT of weight. It is a shame that the real rapist was able to continued to assault women while these poor kids rotted in prison. One question I have: Why do we ASK the accused if they want a lawyer and allow them to speak w/o one? Wouldn't it be better to REQUIRE a lawyer be present? It might have speared these poor kids 7-11 years in prison!!!

[@Saintinthecity-wh9nl]

He has freely admitted that. He says in the documentary that he regrets his involvement in the media onslaught back in 1989 and that he wishes that he had expressed his doubts about the boy's guilt. He was also one of the first journalists to question the official story. I felt that he was fine and that his questions were fair. He doesn't seem like an natural interviewer.

As a sidebar to my reply this is why I don’t trust, nor put stock into ‘box titles’ such as ‘liberal’, nor ‘conservative’. The interviewer is clearly grappling with the unspoken themes of ‘white rage’, ‘white guilt’, and ‘white fragility’ of his own self-examination which he needs to spend his own time exploring. The indictment on the system of long-held inbred racism is directly linked to this interviewers ethnic group who collectively dictate the system at this time.

Check back here in about 10 years when you all have had some experience with the real world please.

[@DigitalDevil]

@@truthhurts837 The jogger had no recollection or memory of her attacker that night so she couldn't identify anyone. Not to mention there was no supporting evidence that said these five people (Especially Korey who didn't even go to the park that night and just went down to the station to support his friend Yussef) were at the location of the attack, and that was pointed out several times to Linda Fairstein but she doubled down and ignored that. They weren't risking anything when they did that. Under the law the police can resort to trickery in order pin a culprit. Source: www.jstor.org/stable/3311616?seq=1#page_scan_tab_contents That can happen to anyone if the cops just quickly want to solve a case, but unfortunately it's mostly pinned on innocent black men. They say people who constantly deny the truth even though there's evidence supporting it are on the spectrum for people who are Schizo-affective, so I don't think you're living in the real world.

[@truthhurts837]

Were all the thirty or forty black and brown teens running through the park that night innocent of attacking and beating people unconscious with metal pipes and robbing folks and leaving them for dead? Did you know Korey told an African American girl that he helped hold the woman’s arms down while she was raped? She swore to it in court. When you’re older you’ll realize how much the media lies to you just to keep you fighting with your neighbors. They do that so you and all your neighbors don’t join together and kick out those in power. Don’t believe their lies and don’t let them divide us. And most of all, please don’t believe everything you hear on a tv show.

[@truthhurts837]

Also, no one knew at the time that the jogger had no recollection. For all they knew she could have woken up and remembered everything. Then where would they be with the “forced confessions”? Why would all those people risk their futures just to lie on some kids? Listen, from day one, every one knew that some of the rapists got away. Reyes coming forward proves nothing knew. DNA collection was just in its infancy stages then. They had no way to collect it all. Seriously, the only reason this is a story now is because of the Trump connection. His enemies can use it to try and make him look bad. And I don’t like Trump. But I know how the politics operate.

You can't expect the youth to know their parents are not aware. When I was a teen we knew there certain places we could not go in the city where we lived. Because there was visible signs that said no negroes allowed. Now there's so called desegregation,there's no signs But you color is a barrier that make you a target for the in the world.

The RACIST New York city of 1989 is the RACIST New York city of 2019. The interviewer reminds me of a NYPD detective. BIG UP THE 5 LIONS✊🏿.

True

[@destinyjohnson1566]

Equinox 95 in the beginning the interviewer had the nerve to say it’s completely different like no! WE ARE STILL GOING THROUGH THIS!

[@equinox95]

@@destinyjohnson1566 The interviewer wanted to soften the injustice of the American legal system and tried to paint a picture of a transformed New York City and America. Some things unfortunately never change that's what the interviewer will never understand. How many more are locked up going through the same thing or worse as we speak🤔.

Equinox 95 the interview is a suspected white racist who will uphold his racist laws. He appeared to be in psychical pain trying to pretend he is interested in the injustice these men experienced as teenagers.

Maybe more so, gentrified to the Max

I just feel so bad for Kory poor thing he had no one had to fight for his manhood got it stripped from him, assaulted, beaten loss his sister, broken home with a toxic mother, no financial or emotional support, learning disability and god knows what else. He's a survivor with strength beyond belief. You can see he is still in alot of pain from the trauma he went through so young . I pray he finds healing no amount of money could erase what these men had to go through.

Agreed his part was hard tooo watch, i cried

[@khrisgivenchy9799]

Melanin Goddess so sad they raped him . Took his manhood so wrong !!

[@chrisscott8837]

I wish nothing but pain and agony on anybody who had anything to do with him being raped beatin or prosecuted...so fucking sad man

[@juliarodriguez4572]

Melanin Goddess I didn't see the movie yet but, I did see the documentary on PBS a couple of years ago and I cried my eyes out for Korey Wise you can see the pain he has!

[@ilhanomar8176]

Was he raped when he was 16 the first assault I was confused when I watch it

[@aleflo06]

What still has me in awe (for lack of a better word) is the fact that Korey was their savior from day one! He was not even on the list of suspects, gets the longest sentence for being the oldest, and if that wasn’t enough, if it wasn’t because he was still suffering paying for this crime he had nothing to do with, the real culprit would never have spoken and the truth would have never come out and all these men would not have been here today telling their story! Yet, he is just being put there with the rest when he deserves a whole different platform. I am in no way minimizing what they went through, but Korey is another story!

[@sweetbuttuh]

I, as well as a lot of others who have commented, feel for Korey more than anything. His story deserved more camera time than it got, and people are speculating that netflix felt certain parts of his story were much too harsh and graphic for their service. I think we should all come together and push for a docu-series that is solely about Korey's life. All of it. The bullying he faced as a teen that caused him to skip school, the disabilities he was born with that made him so vulnerable in this case, his family sitiation, his relationship with his girlfriend, the specifics of the tragedies that happened while serving his sentence, and what life is like for him now! He deserves that recognition. If Korey is actually willing to share his life with us than I think we should all push for him to get that recognition!!

Totally agree. I would like this man to receive alot more money and buy himself all the happiness that money can possibly buy.
