About this listen

 On June 15th, 1920, three black men were taken by a mass mob made up of nearly 10,000 people from a jail cell where they were being held under arrest for the alleged rape of Irene Tusken. They were falsely accused, murdered, and no one was ever convicted for the brutal murder of the three young men.
