Stand Up and Fight (1939) Robert Taylor, Wallace Beery, Florence Rice

In 1844 in Maryland, Blake Cantrell, plantation owner with slaves, is forced by debts to sell his estate and his people. Then he leaves for Cumberland, looking for a job (first time in his life), and ends up working for a stagecoach line run by Capt. Boss Starkey and owned by Susan Griffith. Before love and friendship can triumph, Cantrell will have to commit to the cause of AfricanAmericans in search of freedom.
