2:02Now PlayingIn this excerpt from the latest NIGHT SCHOOL episode, Marc Lamont Hill goes in on a Georgia court’s decision to let a white-owned railroad company take 600 acres of Black-owned land—land that has been in the Smith family since the 1920s.
For nearly two years, Blaine and Diane Smith have been fighting to keep their generational property, but now, thanks to an eminent domain ruling, Sandersville Railroad is set to seize their land for a 4.5-mile rail line. This land built Black wealth, paid for college, and sustained generations—but now it’s being ripped away. The Smiths aren’t backing down, though. They’re taking their fight all the way to the Georgia Supreme Court.
Hill breaks down the disturbing pattern of Black land dispossession happening across the South and why this case matters for the entire country. When the courts are stacked against the people, how do we fight back?
