Scottsboro Boys By: Noah Waltz Connor Nash Paul Saros Jack Alexander Jordyn Westphal

Basic Information  The Scottsboro Boys were a group of 9 black boys who were accused of allegedly raping two white girls.  Their trial took place 12 days after their arrest. It took place in the courtroom of Judge A.E. Hawkins.

NAACP  The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP), was a group that decided not to help the Scottsboro Boys during their trial because one of their main rules was that rape was a politically explosive charge in the South.

Members  1. Clarence Norris  2. Charlie Weems  3. Haywood Patterson  4. Olen Montgomery  5. Ozie Powell  6. Willie Roberson  7. Eugene Williams  8. Andy Wright  9. Roy Wright

The Trial  After the trial, eight of the nine boys were sentenced to death.  The ninth boy wasn’t sentenced to death because he was only 13 years old.

Their Defense  They could not afford an attorney.  Judge A.E. Hawkins gave them a forgetful 70 year old attorney.

Connections  The Scottsboro Boys had a large impact on To Kill A Mockingbird because African- Americans were usually targeted during an investigation.
