The Klansman

A small southern town has just been rocked by a tragedy: a young woman has been violently raped. The white-town fathers immediately declare that the attacker had to be black and place the blame on Garth, a young black man. Assuming that the men in white sheets aren't intent on holding a fair and impartial trial, Garth takes to the woods as the Klansmen lynching party hunts him down. Featuring O.J. Simpson, this drama captures the star at the beginning of his career.
