Actor Mahershala Ali narrates the compelling story of a mixed-race community in Mississippi that, during 1863, defied the Confederacy to establish their own free republic away from slavery. The history explores how this community's mixed-race identity challenged racial norms in the segregated South for generations. Author Victoria Bynum examines the true events behind the legend of the Free State of Jones, distinguishing fact from fiction.
