The story

It won three Humanitas Prizes, two Golden Globe Awards, two NAACP Image Awards for Outstanding Drama Series, and a Peabody Award.

However, the series was never a ratings blockbuster, and it was cancelled by NBC in 1993, despite widespread protests by critics and viewer organizations.

Its major storyline closely paralleled the true story of the 1955 murder of Emmett Till in Money, Mississippi.
