PBS: The People vs. Leo Frank

From JCK member Roberta Weil:peopleI highly recommend the viewing or recording of this program, at 2:00am on November 4.  Besides its place in our country’s history it has great significance to the Jewish community as it was one of the causes of the founding of the anti-Defamation League and is a prime example of the effects of anti-Semitism.We have met the filmmaker and Paul and I supported the production of the film.The 1913 murder of 13-year-old factory worker Mary Phagan and the resulting trial and 1915 lynching of Leo Frank, the factory's superintendent, are recalled via dramatic re-creations with actors Seth Gilliam and Will Janowitz and documentary segments.Links related to the film:Leofrankfilm.com.PBS link.Facebook fan page.
