The Scottsboro Boys' defenses were provided by Communists. What does it say to you that citizens of

a democracy had to rely on their support? How do you think this might have affected their cases--and
the subsequent coverage in the press?

Answer:

Explanation: The communist were the first political party to reach out and help the Scottsboro boys and they did so to thier advantage. The communists used the great depression to demonstate the failures of capitailsm . Plus they also used the scottsboro trial to show thier commintment to black rights.

The Alambama board of pardons and Polares voten unamimously during a hearing in Montgomery to issue the pardons to Haywood Patterson , Charles Weems and andy wright , all of whom were repeadely convicted of the repeatedly the 1930's. The Scottsboro boys have finally recieved justice.
