In 1968, five black girls were picked up by police after running away from a reform school in Mount Meg's Alabama.

I'm writer and reporter Josie Defi Rice, and in a new podcast, I investigate the abuse that thousands of black children suffered at the Alabama Industrial School for Negro Children.

And how those five girls changed everything.

Welcome to Stuff You Missed in History class, a production of iHeartRadio.

Hello and happy Friday, I'm Holly Fry, and I'm Tracy V. Wilson.

We mentioned, I mentioned, when we were talking in our eponymous foods episode this week, which made me giggle a whole lot once we got past the sad part, that I would mention a thing that seems to have happened with Leo Hershfeld's story, which is very sad.

That I don't know if it was done deliberately, but I have to wonder if it wasn't to kind of get distance from the way his life ended, which is that if you look at most histories approved by the company that makes that delightful treat, his last name is misspelled.

As Hershfeld and not Hershfeld, even though that is how he spelled his name throughout his life, there wasn't it wasn't like he changed his name at some point or adapted some so that to me, maybe go, is this or no one can look up what really happened there, but that might be my own conspiracy theory.

Just know if you are going looking for him that that is like in newspaper mentions there aren't a bunch other than his obituary but are the news of his death, but they're you're not going to find it if you do Hershfeld, and if you do Hershfeld, you'll get a lot of the officially accepted versions, which are much pepier and focus on the candy part and not on the disaster part.

Right. We also mentioned that we would talk about to see roles in the Korean War, which you had actually pinged me and said like, did that come up in your research and I was like, yes, but it's for Friday.

And the reason that I pinged you is that nine Jillian years ago, a listener named Kimberly sent in an episode topic suggestion, which I wrote in the spreadsheet as, tootsie rolls saving people in war question mark.

Right. And so I mean, there are, I think there are probably many people that would suggest that just because of the quick energy they offered in ration packs like that could have saved many people's lives.

But there is a very specific Korean war one where that the Marine Corps officially shares this story that during the Korean War, the first Marine division was in action and they were in this horrible sub freezing situation.

And they ran out of ammunition and they called for 60 millimeter mortar ammo and they called them tootsie rolls.

And they use that code name, but the radio operator who received this message did not know this.
