À propos de cet audio
On this episode of Common Mystics, Jen and Jill explore the chilling story of a man condemned to death under dubious circumstances in the deep South of 1889.* The post-Reconstruction era brought significant challenges for people of color across the United States, including in communities like Etowah County, Alabama. Black residents endured constant threats of violence and intimidation, often with little to no protection from a biased legal system. At the center of this story is Charlie Johnson, the first Black man to be legally hanged in Etowah County. Convicted of murder, his case reveals a web of unsettling truths. Join us as we unravel Johnson's story—a narrative filled with revelations that will challenge everything you thought you knew.
