Just Gravy 7: Remembering The Comanche Three
Manage episode 295687171 series 2876977
On June 19, 1981, three teenagers tragically drowned at Booker T. Washington Park during what was then the largest Juneteenth celebration in Texas. They had been taken into police custody after a small bag of marijuana and a joint had been found. Listen as Kelly tells Darryl the difficult story of the Comanche Three and how the community of Limestone County Texas continues to deal with the aftermath forty years later. (Correction from audio: 1,400 people attended the funeral mentioned, not 14,000 - Kelly just can't read numbers so early in the morning) Wikimedia Commons
