Agreed. I hear a lot more of it in New England than I ever did living in Georgia. Don't believe me? Jones Beach ring a bell? South Boston? Yeah, you see me workin here.

Yes they did. White made no mention of lynch mobs or KKK until trial. Which he arrived to with a Nation of Islam troop. They may have provided counsel as well.
