Luther Collins: Cleared by the Police. Sentenced to Die Anyway. 1922 Texas

In 1922 Houston, Luther Collins was a young Black man accused of a crime he didn’t commit. He was too far from the scene. He didn’t match the description. The police chief released him without charges. But within hours, he was arrested again — and sentenced to die. This is the second story in our Uncertainty series — an exploration of what it meant to live in a legal system where truth was fragile, justice was conditional, and being Black was often all it took to be condemned. 🕊️Storytelling & Mission Approach 🕊️ This channel shares historical stories based on scholarly research, archival records, legal documents, and public sources.
