Cold Cases of The Civil Rights Movement

In this gripping episode, we dive deep into Race Against Time—the astonishing true story of how award-winning investigative journalist Jerry Mitchell helped reopen some of the most notorious unsolved murder cases from the civil rights era. From the infamous Mississippi Burning murders to the firebombing of Vernon Dahmer’s home and the 16th Street Baptist Church bombing, Mitchell’s relentless pursuit of truth helped expose hidden crimes, unmask KKK killers, and bring long-delayed justice to the victims of racial violence.

Through dogged reporting, secret FBI documents, and chilling confrontations with former Klansmen, Mitchell cracked cold cases that had gone untouched for decades. His work led to the convictions of men who believed they'd gotten away with racist murders committed in the shadows of Jim Crow America.

This is not just a story of murder and conspiracy—it's a story of courage, accountability, and the power of journalism to right historical wrongs. If you're drawn to true crime, racial justice, civil rights history, and investigative reporting, this is an episode you won’t want to miss.
