Hillary and Tina cover the Rosewood Massacre and Mayor Bob Filner.

Hillary’s Story

Rosewood was a quaint Black community in Levi County, FL. BUT when a white woman falsely accused a black man of rape, Rosewood was burned to the ground.

Tina’s Story

Bob Filner served in the House of Representatives for twenty years before becoming mayor of San Diego in 2012. BUT when assault allegations arose, Filner’s career plummeted.
