The Shadow of Hate: A History of Intolerance in America Overview
"He didn't look like one of us..." To many residents of Atlanta, Georgia in 1913, this was reason enough to suspect Leo Frank of murder. For some, it was reason enough to hang him. It's a story as old as humanity: pointing the finger at those who don't look or act or think like we do. Produced by three time Academy award winning film producer Charles Guggenheim, THE SHADOW OF HATE spans three centuries to examine this country's ongoing struggle to live up to its ideals of liberty, equality and justice for all. Through documentary footage and eyewitness reports, viewers are given a powerful perspective on historical events from the ordinary people who lived through them.
