Southern Horrors

Více o knize

Set against the backdrop of racial violence in the American South, this pamphlet by Ida B. Wells addresses the lynching of eight Black men in 1892. It critiques the pervasive narrative surrounding the justification for such atrocities, particularly the false claims of white women being raped. Wells' bold editorial work led to the destruction of her newspaper's office by an angry mob, highlighting the dangers faced by those who challenge societal norms and expose the harsh realities of racism and injustice.
