Two Klansmen drove around Mobile, Alabama looking for any Black person to kill. They found a 19-year-old walking to the store for cigarettes.
His mother spent the next six years dismantling the Ku Klux Klan in a courtroom. Michael Donald. March 1981.
They beat him, killed him, and hung his body from a tree on a residential street, across from a Klansman's house, so the city would see it in the morning.
Police initially suggested it was a drug deal.
It was not. It was a Klan retaliation for a jury's failure to convict a Black defendant in another case — a life taken at random to send a message.
Beulah Mae Donald refused every version of the story except the true one. She pushed until the FBI reopened it. One killer confessed. The other was executed in 1997 — the first white man executed in Alabama for killing a Black person since 1913.
Then she did the thing nobody expected. She sued the United Klans of America itself.
In 1987 an all-white Alabama jury awarded her seven million dollars. The Klan had no money — so it handed over its national headquarters building. The organization was finished.
A mother buried her son and bankrupted the Ku Klux Klan.
🚨On a Boston-to-LA flight in August 2001, James Woods observed four middle eastern men acting strange and told a flight attendant, "I think these guys are going to hijack this plane."
The FBI later confirmed the 9/11 hijackers ran summer cross country trial runs, Woods positively identified those hijackers. 🇺🇸⬇️
My cousin found my X account filled with gay content and showed my mom. She thanked him, took his username, called me immediately, gave me the username and said, “Block him now.”
My mom really said protect your peace, block the snitch. 😂
This puppy definitely deserves a hero badge!
I was so worried about those little ducklings, but this brave pup didn't hesitate to jump right in and help. The way they interact is just too precious-proof that kindness has no species!
