Admission by Benjamin Davis Jr. in Communist trial case
Attorney John W. Gohey drew admissions from Benjamin J. Davis Jr., one of eleven top Communist leaders on trial in Georgia. Davis testified under direct examination that a Georgia judge called him "nigger" and "darky" in 1933 while he defended Angelo Herndon, who was accused of advocating overthrow of the state government. Herndon was convicted but later freed by a U.S. Supreme Court ruling.
