Retired Georgia Court of Appeals Chief Judge Herbert Phipps is featured in a documentary being screened at Georgia Tech Wednesday about a man whose lawyers saved his life.
“Fair Game: Surviving a 1960 Georgia Lynching,” will be shown at Tech’s student center theater at 3:30 p.m. Wednesday. The film focuses on the small town of Blakely in Early County, Georgia, where 24 African-American men were lynched and where, in 1960, a New Jersey Navy veteran James Fair Jr. almost became the 25th.
