Yes, it is. Blacks were, in fact, slaves in the south of the US, and they were treated as property and animals. There were rapes of the slaves as well as whippings and cruel punishments for slaves who would continuously try to escape and whom they believed would possibly encourage others to do the same.
There was resentment toward blacks after the civil war and there were people who believed they should still be slaves and still be their property. They went around terrorizing black Americans to so called "keep them in their place". These people were the precursor to the KKK or Ku Klux Klan.

What criminal investigation television show is most realistic?
Based on 30 years in law enforcement, I can't recommend ANY of the current 'acted' "entertainment" shows as being realistic. There used to be a show called "Homicide - Life On The Street" that was probably the nearest to 'real life' that I've ever seen, unfortunately it has been off the air for quite some time now. For 'non-entertainment' TV shows, on TruTV (formerly 'Court TV') any of the shows on a program called 'Forensic Files' are good.
