The Scottsboro Boys fought their case through the aid of a communist party who ensured their sentence was delayed and some of them got acquitted but not immediately. The Scottsboro’s boys 14th amendment were obliterated, and this caught the media’s attention for numerous years over this matter and the necessity for racial justice.
The example of a commonplace example of prejudice in this context entails racial prejudice and it fosters discrimination. In my own opinion, the 14th amendment of the Scottsboro Boys was violated based on the prejudice that clouded the jurisdiction’s predetermined opinion. They were not listened to because the jurisdiction’s opinion was already made up against Scottsboro Boys since they were Black hence they were guilty.
