No one crosses this line alive. They were defiant. They were determined. They were not going down without a fight. "Deacons For Defense" is the almost-forgotten but true story of a group of African American men who boldly took up arms against the Ku Klux Klan. With the whole world watching, these men changed forever their lives, their town, and their country. "Deacons For Defense" stars Forest Whitaker ("Phone Booth"), Johnathan Silverman ("Made"), and Ossie Davis (Anne Rice's "Feast Of All Saints").
