Description

A Time to kill: "There are crimes of race and creed and colour. And so when the people outside of Clanton hear that a black man has killed two whites who raped his ten-year-old daughter, the town is filled with an angry mob determined to tear down, burn and destroy anything and everyone that opposes them."
