A cow is shot with an automatic gun, and is then hit by a car. A man crushes a frog in his hand and then throws it against a tree. A dog is shown struggling underwater (but you're not shown if it dies)

The main characters escape a chain gang and have manacles. Several other prisoners and chain gangs are shown throughout the film that are manacled in the same fashion.

Extremely graphic scene involving someone due to be lynched by the KKK - he is rescued and the ceremony is viewed as negative. A diminutive of the N word is dropped a few times.
