MM#13 When Mama Sued The KKK

He was just going to the corner store.

In 1981, Michael Donald never made it home.

Two members of the Ku Klux Klan had been driving the streets of Mobile, Alabama with a gun and a rope — looking for any Black man they could find.

But this isn't just the story of a murder.

It's the story of what his mother did next.

In this episode, we follow Beulah Mae Donald — a single mother from a Mobile housing project — as she took the most powerful Klan faction in America to civil court, and didn't stop until she had bankrupted the entire organization.

Because sometimes justice doesn't come from a gavel.

Sometimes it comes from a mother who refuses to quit.
