    I am anxious to see this documentary. My heart aches all over again, as if this massacre was just yesterday. “Strange Fruit” over the trailer takes my breath away.

    I am sure I will watch this but it’s not something I’m looking forward to seeing. This is not only painful but I have personal ties to that church. I’m from NYC but my mother sang in the choir when she was young and my great grandmother is buried there. The pain is visceral and I feel it every time I hear or see anything about this horrific event.
