Decades before Melvin Crowe's hate crime against Miguel Marcelli, the 1912 murder of his distant relative Mae Crow incites a riot in which over 2,000 white men storm the Forsyth County jail, brutally lynching Rob Edwards in the streets. These events led to a shameful era in Georgia history referred to as "the sundown", culminating in the 1987 civil rights march through downtown Cumming. On January 24th of that year, Fran and 3,000 other LEO's set aside their fear and strapped on their tactical gear in an effort to gain control of the chaos of over 20,000 marchers and white supremacists clashing in the courthouse square--an event that garnered international attention and turned the tide of diversity in North Georgia.
