Ratings and reviews

A documentary based on the FACTS of public information, State, and FBI files. If it were my loved one, I pray I'd have the strength and resilience of this family to push forward for the truth no matter the cover-ups and many obstacles placed in their path. Bless this family and give them answers and peace finally.

If you care about racial justice, this is a must-see documentary. The FBI deliberately tried to obstruct this case by covering up vital information that is revealed at the end of this film. Unconscionable, despicable behavior by the FBI to protect one of its' own! There are brave people who speak out in this film for truth and justice. This is one of the best documentaries I have ever seen.

I always knew they was lying and covering up his death.i hope everyone involved never rest and they will be compelled to tell the truth. Someone will tell it, i pray its not 60 plus years later like Emmitt Till.... they know what they did! One day KJ will rest in peace
