EMMA COLEMAN jORDAN* A major difficulty facing the reparations-for-slavery movement is that to date the movement has focused its litigation strategies and its rhetorical effort upon the institution of slavery. While slavery is the root of modern racism, it suffers many defects as the center piece of a reparations litigation strategy. The most important diffi culty is temporal. Formal slavery ended in 1865. Thus, the time line of potentially reparable injury extends to well before the pe riod of any person now living. The temporal difficulty arises from the conventional expectations of civil litigation, which require a harmony of identity between the defendants and the plaintiffs. -

THE RED RECORD: TABULATED STATISTICS and ALLEGED CAUSES of LYNCHING in the UNITED STATES (1895) by Ida B
THE RED RECORD: TABULATED STATISTICS AND ALLEGED CAUSES OF LYNCHING IN THE UNITED STATES (1895) By Ida B. Wells-Barnett PREFACE HON. FREDERICK DOUGLASS’S LETTER: DEAR MISS WELLS: Let me give you thanks for your faithful paper on the lynch abomination now generally practiced against colored people in the South. There has been no word equal to it in convincing power. I have spoken, but my word is feeble in comparison. You give us what you know and testify from actual knowledge. You have dealt with the facts with cool, painstaking fidelity, and left those naked and uncontradicted facts to speak for themselves. Brave woman! you have done your people and mine a service which can neither be weighed nor measured. If the American conscience were only half alive, if the American church and clergy were only half Christianized, if American moral sensibility were not hardened by persistent infliction of outrage and crime against colored people, a scream of horror, shame, and indignation would rise to Heaven wherever your pamphlet shall be read. But alas! even crime has power to reproduce itself and create conditions favorable to its own existence. It sometimes seems we are deserted by earth and Heaven--yet we must still think, speak and work, and trust in the power of a merciful God for final deliverance. Very truly and gratefully yours, FREDERICK DOUGLASS Cedar Hill, Anacostia, D.C.

Durrill Abstract Rehearsal for Redemption: The Politics of Post-Emancipation Violence in Kentucky’s Bluegrass Region By James Michael Rhyne In the late antebellum period, changing economic and social realities fostered conflicts among Kentuckians as tension built over a number of issues, especially the future of slavery. Local clashes matured into widespread, violent confrontations during the Civil War, as an ugly guerrilla war raged through much of the state. Additionally, African Americans engaged in a wartime contest over the meaning of freedom. Nowhere were these interconnected conflicts more clearly evidenced than in the Bluegrass Region. Though Kentucky had never seceded, the Freedmen’s Bureau established a branch in the Commonwealth after the war. -
July 31, 2020 Chancellor Kevin Guskiewicz Via Electronic Delivery
July 31, 2020 Chancellor Kevin Guskiewicz Via electronic delivery Dear Chancellor Guskiewicz: On behalf of the Commission on History, Race, and a Way Forward, we write to follow up on the Board of Trustees’ July 29 meeting, specifically with regard to the interim decision to leave the name of Thomas Ruffin Jr. on Ruffin Residence Hall. New evidence has come to light, which does not appear in any published account of Klan violence during the Reconstruction era. It is in the form of newspaper stories and public correspondence that link Ruffin to a legislative grant of amnesty to Klansmen who were responsible for two political assassinations in Alamance and Caswell Counties. Both victims – one black, the other white – were Republican officeholders and civic leaders. A full report accompanies this letter as a supplement to materials submitted in support of our July 10 recommendation that the names of Charles Aycock, Julian Carr, Josephus Daniels, Thomas Ruffin, and Thomas Ruffin Jr. be removed from campus buildings. We believe that the information presented warrants an expedited review and removal of Thomas Ruffin Jr.’s name from Ruffin Residence Hall at the earliest possible date. This referral and the attached report were approved unanimously by commission members on July 30 in a poll conducted via e-mail. For the Commission, Patricia S. Parker James Leloudis Thomas Ruffin Jr. (1824 – 1889) This document supplements supporting materials that accompanied the July 10, 2020, recommendation from the Commission on History, Race, and a Way Forward that the names of Thomas Ruffin and Thomas Ruffin Jr. be removed from Ruffin Residence Hall. -

The inquiry explores the group’s practices of public relations in order to understand how they and other stakeholders co-constructed meanings concerning social justice at the time. The semi-structured interviews with former group members, public relations practitioners in their own right, as well as select work product (e.g. press releases) and internal documents are analyzed through the circuit of culture (Du Gay, et al., 2013). A theory stemming from Cultural Studies, the circuit of culture framework affords sharper understandings of power relations and processes of making meaning—of which public relations is a part. The case study data reveal at least six findings related to four themes concerning governance, professional and amateur practices, social media usage, and diversity of representation. -
Publicity and the De-Legitimation of Lynching∗
\Judge Lynch" in the Court of Public Opinion: Publicity and the De-legitimation of Lynching∗ Michael Weaver Postdoctoral Fellow Department of Political Science University of British Columbiay [email protected] November 8, 2018 Abstract How does violence become publicly unacceptable? I address this question in the context of lynching in United States. Between 1880 and the 1930s, public discourse about lynching moved from open or tacit endorsement to widespread condemnation. I argue this occurred because of increasing publicity for lynchings. While locals justified nearby lynchings, publicity exposed lynching to distant, un-supportive audiences and allowed African Americans to safely articulate counter-narratives and condemnations. I test this argument using data on lynchings, rail networks, and newspaper coverage of lynchings in millions of issues across thousands of newspapers. I find that lynchings in counties with greater access to publicity (via rail networks) saw more and geographically dispersed coverage, that distant coverage was more critical, and that increased risk of media exposure may have reduced the incidence of lynching. I discuss how publicity could be a mechanism for strengthening or weakening justifications of violence in other contexts. ∗I would like to thank the anonymous reviewers, Gareth Nellis, Elisabeth Wood, Vesla Weaver, Steven Wilkinson, Nikhar Gaikwad, as well as participants in the Yale Comparative Politics Workshop, the 2015 Politics and History conference, the 2015 American Political Science Association conference, and the 2015 Berkeley Electoral Violence conference for helpful comments and advice. I would also like to thank my research assistants|Nina Shirole, Bahja Alammari, Emily Beatty, Andi Jordan, Emil Lauritsen, Emma Lodge, and Arian Zand|for their invaluable work on this project. -
