100 years of Lynchings

100 Years of Lynchings, first published in 1962, is as relevant today as it was then. It provides vivid newspaper articles of a “red record of racial atrocities.” to the reader. It is a straightforward and easy-to-understand presentation. The news stories speak for themselves because there is no narrative. We witness a history of racial horrors through them that we cannot afford to ignore. Ginzburg sifted through stories from a variety of publications, major and small, radical and conservative, white and black. He has developed a documentary about lynchings as a result of them.
