Wow. Both seasons blew me away. Such important journalism. Necessary accountability. Justice and transformation cannot occur without bringing these ugly truths to light. Thank you for your reporting and big love to all the survivors of the disgraceful injustices who are brave enough to share their stories.

It’s the typical south!! I was born and raised in the south, but I was always taught that you are no better than the person next to you and that everyone was the same no matter of the skin color.. I’m just saying eye for an eye, but I am catholic so I have to forgive… I never comment on this, but man this is wow..
