Description
"In the late 1800s and early 1900s, mobs of white people killed thousands of African Americans in the United States. These killings were called lynchings. Mobs lynched Black people for minor or perceived insults. Often the victims had not committed a crime. But they did not receive a fair trial. White people used lynchings to control and oppress Black people. Black journalist Ida Wells was one of the first to investigate lynchings. She researched and documented more than 700 lynchings. Her work helped expose widespread violence against African Americans..." - page 4.
