As presented, the article almost constantly fell into the antiquated and condescending Southen practice of calling an adult (age 19 here) black man by his first name, helping in a subtle way perhaps to continue the sort of racial stereotyping that led to the events the article describes. I have reduced this by changing it in some instances (where it would not seem stilted) to his last name, as would almost certainly be done with regard to a white man of a similar age under similar circumstances (had there been such) and in other instances where the antecedent is very clear to "him"/"his". 2600:1004:B16D:C243:E4AC:3758:1A73:94CB (talk) 02:59, 27 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
