Alabama has granted posthumous pardons to the remaining three African-American men who had yet to be exonerated for false allegations of rape 80 years ago. The Scottsboro Boys were nine black Alabama teenagers convicted by all-white juries of gang-raping two white women in 1931. Five of the teens were exonerated in 1937 after one of the accusers recanted her story. The Scottsboro Boys’ legal appeals sparked protests against racism and landmark Supreme Court rulings establishing the right to effective legal counsel and barring the systematic exclusion of blacks from juries. Alabama’s Scottsboro Boys Museum and Cultural Center, which opened in 2010 to honor their legacy, says it will display the pardon certificates beginning next month.
