89: Mass Confusion

In a final archival clip, Eli Evans discusses the "dark mood" in Atlanta following the Leo Frank trial and his subsequent lynching. The hosts point out inaccuracies in Evans's account, noting that Frank's sentence was commuted rather than him being set free. They conclude that the case remains a powerful example of how history is rewritten to serve specific organizational narratives.
