Summary
The courtroom this time was populated by a very different group of people, far closer to representing the nation’s diversity than in the early 1960s. His performances then and now have always been compelling. “I feel oppressed by the atmosphere of white domination that lurks all around in this courtroom,” he announced while conducting his own defence in the famous Treason Trial of 1960.
