  A Lynching at Port Jervis: Race and Reckoning in the Gilded Age

  An account of a lynching that took place in New York in 1892, forcing the North to reckon with its own racism. On June 2, 1892, in the small, idyllic village of Port Jervis, New York, a young Black man named Robert Lewis was lynched by a violent mob. The twenty-eight-year-old victim had been accused of sexually assaulting Lena McMahon, the daughter of one of the town's well-liked Irish American families. The incident was infamous at once, for it was seen as a portent that lynching, a Southern scourge, surging uncontrollably below the Mason-Dixon Line, was about to extend its tendrils northward. What factors prompted such a spasm of racial violence in a relatively prosperous, industrious upstate New York town, attracting the scrutiny of the Black journalist Ida B. Wells, just then beginning her courageous anti-lynching crusade? What meaning did the country assign to it? And what did the incident portend? Today, it's a terrible truth that the assault on the lives of Black Americans is neither a regional nor a temporary feature, but a national crisis. There are regular reports of a Black person killed by police, and Jim Crow has found new purpose in describing the harsh conditions of life for the formerly incarcerated, as well as in large-scale efforts to make voting inaccessible to Black people and other minority citizens. The "mobocratic spirit" that drove the 2021 attack on the U.S. Capitol-a phrase Abraham Lincoln used as early as 1838 to describe vigilantism's corrosive effect on America-frightfully insinuates that mob violence is a viable means of effecting political change. These issues remain as deserving of our concern now as they did a hundred and thirty years ago, when America turned its gaze to Port Jervis. An alleged crime, a lynching, a misbegotten attempt at an official inquiry, and a past unresolved. In A Lynching at Port Jervis, the acclaimed historian Philip Dray revisits this time and place to consider its significance in our communal history and to show how justice cannot be achieved without an honest reckoning.

  Under a Full Moon: The Last Lynching in Kansas , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 635min

  Under a Full Moon: The Last Lynching in Kansas tells of the tragic abduction and death of an eight-year-old girl at the hands of a repeat offender in 1932. This crime stands apart as the last mob lynching in Kansas. Based on true events, this account takes a deep dive into the psycho-social complexities of pioneer times and their impact on this particular crime and the justice meted out to the perpetrator. Beginning in the year 1881, and written in a chronological narrative non-fiction format, author Alice Kay Hill, vividly weaves the stories of the victims and the families involved. She reveals how mental and physical abuse, social isolation, privations of homesteading, strong dreams and even stronger personalities all factored into the criminal and his crimes. Spanning the years of settlement to the beginnings of the Dust Bowl, historic events are lived as daily news by the seven families whose lives become intertwined. Historically accurate and written with an intimate knowledge of the area, Under a Full Moon is as personal as a family diary, as vivid as a photo album found in an attic trunk, and will remain with the listener long after the book is closed. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Jill Fair. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/acx0/225651/bk_acx0_225651_sample.mp3. Digital audiobook in aax.

  Thirteen Loops: Race, Violence, and the Last Lynching in America , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 369min

  Thirteen Loops: Race, Violence, and the Last Lynching in America recounts the story of three innocent victims, all of whom suffered violent deaths through no fault of their own: Vaudine Maddox in 1933 in Tuscaloosa, Sergeant Gene Ballard in 1979 in Birmingham, and Michael Donald in 1981 in Mobile. The death of Vaudine Maddox - and the lynchings that followed - serves as a cautionary tale about the violence that occurred in the same region nearly 50 years later, highlighting the cowardice, ignorance, and happenstance that sustained a culture of racial intolerance far into the future. Nearly half a century later, after a black bank robber was acquitted for the murder of police sergeant Gene Ballard, two Klansmen took it upon themselves to exact revenge on an innocent victim - 19-year-old African American Michael Donald. Donald's murder - deemed the last lynching in America - reignited the race debate in America and culminated in a courtroom drama in which the United Klans of America were at long last put on trial. A work of literary journalism, Thirteen Loops draws upon rarely examined primary sources, court documents, newspaper reports, and firsthand accounts in an effort to unravel the twisted tale of a pair of interconnected murders that forever altered United States' race relations. ungekürzt.
