Sobre IBD

A number of years ago, there was a TV show titled The Naked City. It always ended with this comment: "There are eight million stories in the Naked City; you have just seen one of them." Uncle Little Buddy is one story, not of the Naked City but of a murder that took place in 1944 near Fort Benning, Georgia. Two Negroes were court-martialed and sentenced to be hanged. A mother took the momentum task of trying to exonerate her son by praying and writing letters to congressmen and generals. In order to amplify this story, other family members were and are integral parts of the life of Uncle Little Buddy. Portions of their stories are included; after all, this was a Negro convicted of murdering a white man in Georgia in 1944.
