by The Sydney Morning Herald of Australia on May 25, 1936. Representation in other media Hollywood, radio and, later TV, responded to the lurid nature of the Legion by producing works that referred to it. Legion of Terror (1936) starred Ward Bond and Bruce Cabot, and it was based on this group. Black Legion (1937), a feature film starring Humphrey Bogart, was based on the events which led to the murder of Charles Poole, but the details of the case and the names of the people who were involved in it were changed in the film. It depicted the devastating effect of domestic terrorist groups like the Black Legion on an ordinary American man, his family, his neighbors, and his coworkers. The National Board of Review named Black Legion the best film of 1937, and it named Humphrey Bogart the best actor for his work on the film. True Detective Mysteries, a radio show which was based on the magazine which had the same title, broadcast an episode on April 1, 1937, which directly referred to the Black Legion and Poole's murder. The radio show The Shadow, with Orson Welles in the title role, broadcast an episode on March 20, 1938, titled "The White Legion"; the group which was described in the episode was loosely based on the Black Legion. Since the late 20th century, the group has received renewed historic and popular attention. Malcolm X and Alex Haley collaborated on The Autobiography of Malcolm X (1965). Malcolm noted that the Legion had been active in Lansing, Michigan, where his family lived. Malcolm X was six years old when his father died in 1931; he believed that his father was killed by the Black Legion. In 1998, the TV series History's Mysteries presented an episode about the group entitled "Terror in the Heartland: The Black Legion". Author Tom Stanton's 2016 nonfiction book Terror in the City of Champions (2016) details the group's activities. The TV series Damnation (2017) features the group. References 13. Littlefield, Bill.
