    About When They See Us: When They See Us extends from 1989 when five Harlem teens were, according to Dominic Patten, “convicted first in the media and then twice in the courts for the brutal rape of a jogger in the NYC park to 2014 when Antron McCray, Kevin Richardson, Yusef Salaam, Raymond Santana and Korey Wise saw their names finally cleared. Having been vilified by New Yorkers back in the late 80s and forced to spend years in jail each, the five sued New York City and settled for just over $40 million about four years ago. Before you take another breath, take into account that sum that works out to around $1 million for every year they collectively spent tossed behind bars for a terrible crime they never committed.

It helped me get thru watching WTSU

I was a mess watching this show so I needed to have a crutch to get thru the emotional roller coaster. I think they do a beautiful job of relaying how people feel when they are listening to a white person pontificate on matters of race.

Disappointing and sad podcast series

One of the most powerful aspects of this story is Korey's relationship and unconditional love for his sister. She meant so much to him and if you can watch episode four and not realize that, then this podcast isn't worth anyone's time. Marci is Korey's sister, not her "sister-brother" or "brother-sister". Even their mother realized who SHE was, eventually. Get it together, it makes you all sound ignorant.
