About “On lynchings”
The book collects three pamphlets by Ida B. Wells-Barnett—Southern Horrors, A Red Record, and Mob Rule in New Orleans—written in response to the practice of lynching African Americans in the United States during the late 19th century. It presents factual evidence, including statistics from the Chicago Tribune and statements from Southern White sources, to document the violence and systemic racism that persisted after the Civil War.
