MONROE, GA, UNITED STATES, July 25, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ -- “Unspoken,” an award-winning documentary about the “Last Mass Lynching in America,” is now available to rent or buy on Prime Video via Prime Video Direct in the United States and the United Kingdom. The film examines the 1946 Moore’s Ford lynching, the unsolved murders of four African American sharecroppers by an unmasked white mob in Georgia, and explores the scars it left through new historical research and exclusive interviews from residents of the nearby half-Black, half-white, small Southern town.— Filmmaker and Monroe resident Stephanie Calabrese.
The feature film traces the struggle of segregation, the Civil Rights Movement and school integration in Monroe, a city of 15,000 that served as the hub of Georgia cotton production in the 1900s. It aims to spark dialogue and open paths toward reconciliation in communities across America still shaped by racial and socioeconomic divides.
