Assault at West Point: The Court Martial of Johnson Whittaker
Assault at West Point is a 1994 television docudrama about Johnson Chesnut Whittaker, one of the first black cadets at West Point, and the trial that followed an assault he suffered in 1880. The film features Samuel L. Jackson, who portrays a lawyer who defends Whittaker.
The film closes in later years, with Johnson being interviewed by a reporter. The reporter asks Johnson what happened afterwards. Johnson tells him that he went on to become a school principal, while Greener is now retired. He also informs the reporter that Chamberlain later on went to defend lynching. People will sometimes do anything to gather fame, states Johnson, to which the reporter replies, I wonder what hidden agenda he was carrying. The film ends with the reporter telephoning the newspaper and telling them to hold the first page he has a great story.
