The civil rights boys came to propose
setting up a voter registration clinic.
:15:19
Before the locals got a chance to say yes,
the Klan burned 'em down.
:15:22
- You give a man a vote but he can't use it.
- Yeah, that's the way it works.
:15:26
What did their office in Rossville say?
:15:28
That the boys came back here
to apologize to the congregation.
:15:32
"Sorry you folks didn't get to vote. "
:15:34
"I suppose most of you
never knew you even had one. "
:15:38
"Now you got no place to go on Sunday. "
:15:42
Apparently, after they came back here,
they talked to some locals down the road.
:15:46
- I think that's where we should start.
- Oh, they won't talk to you.
:15:51
These people have to live here
long after we're gone.
:15:54
They'd rather bite their tongue off
than talk to us.
:15:56
Bureau procedure, Mr. Anderson.
:16:05
The church caught fire
and you ran home. Is that correct?
:16:09
Yes, sir.
:16:11
And then the four white men
stopped you?
:16:13
Yes, sir.
:16:15
And these four white men
attacked your husband?
:16:18
Yes, sir.
:16:20
But you can't identify them.
:16:24
No, sir.
:16:26
Did you report this to the police?
:16:29
No, sir.
:16:31
But you told the civil rights boys
what happened?
:16:34
Yes, sir.
:16:36
Ma'am, did they tell you
where they were going after that?
:16:43
- No, sir.
- Nothing?
:16:46
No, sir.
:16:50
All right. Thank you, ma'am.
:16:52
You're welcome.
