Totally agree with this. On recent viewing, the whole Terence Mann being a Civil Rights leader/spokesman/advocate thing seemed tailor-made to have Josh Gibson or Satchel or somebody show up. I think that would have really tied things together. The whole Terence Mann thing seemed a little random to me.
