In Americus, Georgia, 1963, three young girls meet at a local protest, only to face chilling consequences for demanding justice.
Introducing The Stolen Girls of Americus, PushBlack’s new true crime narrative podcast, based on the true story of more than a dozen Black girls (ages 9 to 15) who were abducted by police during a 1963 protest in Americus, Georgia, where, for 45 days, their whereabouts remained a mystery to their family, community, and the world.
