The Red Record: Tabulated Statistics and Alleged Causes of Lynching in the United States by Ida B. Wells

5.0

Ida B. Wells was a warrior of the antilynching campaign. Her life was threatened and she was exiled from her home due to her activism. In this pamphlet, she enumerates the lynchings over a specific amount of time, the "reasons" for those lynchings, and the facts that showed the lawlessness practiced by the mobs to be brutally unjust. She has no time for hand holding.
