Légende

The case of the Scottsboro Boys, nine African-American teenagers, aged 12-19, accused in Alabama of raping two white women in 1931, is commonly cited as an example of a miscarriage of justice in the United States legal system. A circular pin-back button with red typeface and a graphic of two arms (representing the International Labor Defense) bending open prison bars with nine men's faces below. Red type at the top reads: [SAVE / THE / SCOTTSBORO / BOYS]. The back of the pin has a paper backing with handwriting and print that reads: [5383 / Eagle Regalia Co / 298 Broadway / New York]. A logo of the maker is below the type.
