Coming to History Channel October 2010

Justice can be lost and gained in every courthouse in America as it has been since this nation's founding. However, justice is not always seen at first glance. This original programming series travels from small county courthouses to the nation's highest court.

Beginning with the 1921 trial of John S. Williams who was the first white man to be convicted by an all white jury in the killing of black farm workers, this series is an intimate look at how history weaves itself through our courtrooms and communities both in tragic and humorous ways.
