Men Without a Country

Booker Thomas Spicely (December 1, 1909 - July 8, 1944) was a victim of racial violence whose murder in North Carolina, United States is considered to be one of a series of outrages that contributed to rising activism in the Civil Rights movement. Other incidents in this period included Irene Morgan in July 1944 being arrested and jailed in Virginia for refusing to give up her seat on an interstate bus to a white person, and the murder of 14-year-old Emmett Till inMississippi in 1955.
Biography

Spicely was born in Blackstone, Virginia, to Lazarus and Alberta Spicely. He attended two years of high school and was a cook before volunteering for theUnited States Army on December 31, 1943 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania He did not work for the Tuskegee Institute like most stories say. It was his brother Robert that was actually a former business manager there. His serial number was 33809308, and he was trained as a cook in the Army.

In 1944, Private Spicely was stationed at Camp Butner, North Carolina. While on a pass into the nearby city of Durham on July 8, 1944, he boarded a bus with a black woman he was talking to at the bus stop, and according to her sworn statement, they sat in the second to last seat and not in the front as reported. The driver told them all to move to the last seat for some white soldiers who boarded, as public transportation was segregated in North Carolina. The woman did, but Spicely refused, initially asking the other soldiers why he had to move since he was not aware of the laws in North Carolina. There was conflicting testimony exactly what PVT Spicely said but one of the white soldiers mentioned that he said "I thought I was fighting this war for democracy". The bus driver then said "shut up or get off".
During the ride, PVT Spicely continued arguing with the bus driver until he departed the bus. When he did, the driver followed him off the bus and shot Spicely twice when the soldier turned around. His cause of death is listed as homicide ("shot by bus driver"), with sudden death occurring due to a "pistol shot wound through heart" with a secondary cause of "pistol shot through liver".[1]
The driver, Herman Lee Council, was tried for the second-degree murder of Spicely; he was acquitted by the all-white jury on the grounds of self defense. Chief Counsel for the NAACP, Thurgood Marshall, was involved in prosecuting the case.

According to some sources, due to Spicely's murder, a riot ensued in the tobacco warehouse district of Durham, resulting in the destruction (via arson) of several of the white-owned tobacco warehouses. However, contemporary newspaper accounts make no mention of a connection between Spicely's death and the warehouse district fire.

The War Department conducted an investigation of Spicely’s death titled Subject: Racial Incident, Shooting of Negro Soldier, Durham, N.C. on 8 July 1944 at about 1940, dated July 12, 1944. His cause of death, which occurred during World War II, is listed as DNB, or “Died, Non-Battle.”

Spicely's body was returned to his home in Blackstone, Virginia, for burial. Herman Lee Council died in a nursing home in 1982.

i actually remember reading about this, and a bunch more stories like this from NC in a NC History class i took in college..

kinda off-topic, but the sit-in in Greensboro, and the general area were turning it up back then.. them folks werent having it.. also, for those who dont know- Woolworth(were the sit-ins occurred) is now the people who own Foot Locker.. I've never shopped at a Foot Locker a day after i discovered that info..

it seems like we're the only people that believe playing fair/moral or "playing the game". i don't think that shyt will work for them, too corrupted. just by "playing the game " it already means it was never equal and it will never be equal. they have all corners down there covered

if they want to kill your black kids ..they will. cover-ups. Blue Wall (no good cops) all the good stuff
