1965, Rev. James Reeb was murdered in Selma, Alabama. Three men were tried and acquitted, but no one was ever held to account. Fifty years later, two journalists from Alabama return to the town where it happened, expose the lies that kept the murder from being solved and uncover a story about guilt and memory that says as much about America today as it does about the past.
Join the hosts of NPR’s White Lies podcast, Chip Brantley and Andrew Beck Grace, as they share the definitive story of what happened to Rev. James Reeb – and the long road they took to get there.
Plus live performances from Duquette Johnston and The Dexateens!
