13416040, I wonder if people will see Nate Parker differently in 2020

Remember you have the account of three black men (including the guy who didn't participate) were consistent. So the accusations against Nate are solely based on the word of one white woman who told inconsistent accounts. So this matter comes down to the word of three black men (all who have seemed to had no pattern or other accusations) versus an accuser who was dealing with a life long battle with mental illness and depression that pre-dates her involvement with Nate Parker. This accuser also accused ALL of the Black Student Union at Penn State's campus of harassing her. She also falsely accused her own family members of crimes such as kidnapping and had delusions she was Satan and God and thought god was talking to her through her radio. It just goes to show the power of a white woman's accusation regardless of underlying facts.

Nate Parker actually went to trial for what he was accused of, and an all white jury acquited him. Think about that. An All white jury looked at all the facts an concluded that a black man did not rape a white woman. Given the long history in this country of black men being falsely accused of sexual crimes against white women, its startling to me that an all white jury 20 years is given the brother more of the benefit of the doubt than Social Media in 2020.

Its just crazy that black twitter is constantly in an outrage at the way the criminal justice system treats black men and Karens falsely accusing Black people of crimes but at the same time are incapable of believing that this dude might have been falsely accused of a crime.
