Trey’s Table Episode 297: The Leesburg Stockade Girls

from Trey's Table · host Trey Smith

In the summer of 1963, while the world focused on marches and speeches, over a dozen Black girls—some as young as 12—were locked inside a Georgia stockade. Their crime? Protesting segregation. No charges. No trial. Just weeks in a sweltering, filthy cell. Their story was almost erased—until a photographer risked everything to expose the truth. This week on Trey’s Table we uncover the harrowing, forgotten history of the Leesburg Stockade Girls. Their courage. Their resilience. And why this story still matters today.
