For the purpose of this work it is defined as the execution without process of the law, by a mob , of any individual suspected or con victed of a crime or accused of an offense against the prevailing social customs . The State of Minnesota clearly defines it as the killing of a human being by the t act or procurement of a mob . In Ken ucky and North Carolina the lynch -victim must have been in the hands of the law or there was no lynching . Virginia defines it simply as murder and ordains that every person composing the mob , upon conviction, shall be pun ishe d by death . There is more than the Simple dictionary definition of lynching . Behind every lynching, beyond the de is the struction of the unfortunate victim, debasement x democr a of citizenship , the crucifi ion of justice and f l t t of oflicia s, tic government, the pros i ution public P R E FACE - and the depraved behavior of the mob members . The f es ef ects of a lynching on the mind of an observer, eciall l . u p y a chi d , cannot be estimated The co se quences of sadistic practices put human relations on a “ : considerably lower plane . Dr . A . A . Brill states Any one taking part in or witnessing a lynching cannot t e ” main a civilized person . It is seldom that a mob gives voice to its creed as one u did the outside Covington , Tennessee , in Aug st, 1 9 3 7 : when urged by the sher iffto let the law take its “ #” course , it cried , To hell with the law It is not only the cry of the lyncher but of ever y other type of criminal . 1 88 2 Since , when lynchings were first recorded, 1 I z vic through 9 3 7 , the toll of the mob has been tims . More than four fifths of these were Negroes , of whom less than one Sixth were accused of rape . Lynchings have declined from a high of 2 3 5 in 1 89 2 1 was to a low of eight for 9 3 7 . The decrease not con Stant: in 1 9 3 2 the number fell to ten only to rise to - twenty eight in the following year . It is an inevitable fact that during the coming years certain Americans will meet their deaths at the hands of mobs . Lynchers are criminals in the same sense that mur der er s and kidnapers are criminals : lynching is a CI‘lIIl l nal activity, and to be put down it must be considered as such . Obviously law enactment is not enough ; rigid 8 P R E FAC E enforcement is necessary and it must be backed up by a public sentiment against the crime . Even the most serious protagonists for a Federal law against lynching do not believe that it will stop the practice . They point out that proposed Federal legislation leaves the appr e he nsion and punishment of lynchers to the state , that it only makes recalcitrant states abandon their do - noth fi ing policy, and that it forces peace of cers to resist the mob beforehand and to prosecute it afterwards . It seeks to guarantee the humblest citizen the due pro cess of the law and the equal protection assured him by the national Constitution . It provides that cowardly and unfaithful public officials may be fined and impr is u o ed , and that the people of the county who permitted the murder be made liable for monetary damages . Such a law will not eradicate the crime of lynching, but it will convince peace ofli cer s that they must not release their prisoners to a mob and that the lynch minded must suppress their sadistic desires : it will serve as an effective curb on a crime that many Ameri n ca s condone . It is almost impossible to verify statistics relating to lynchings . For this work the author has gone to several sources : from 1 88 2 to I 888 the accepted totals are those compiled by Cutler from the files of the Chicago 9 P REFACE r ibune 1 88 1 T , and from 9 to 9 3 7 the records are those of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People . Some independent research has not materially changed these figures . For prevented lynch ings, the estimates of Monroe N . Work , of the Depart e ment of Records and R search at Tuskegee , have been accepted . In many communities there are forces strong enough to suppress news of lynch -executions ; in others the bodies of the victims are destroyed or secretly buried , and the members of the small mobs sworn to silence . For my research I have used the published material of many individuals and organizations . That I have been materially aided by the work of James Elbert Cutler, Walter White , Arthur F . Raper, and James Harmon Chadbourn is apparent and herewith ac knowledged . Organizations such as the National As sociation for the Advancement of Colored People , the Southern Commission on the Study of Lynching, the A ni merican Civil Liberties U on, the Industrial Work ers of the World , the International Labor Defense , ’ and the Workers Defense League have be en helpful in letters and documents loaned . To the Federal Writ ers ’ Project thanks are due for a leave of absence to complete this work . 1 0 P REFACE To Alfred Hartog I am indebted for considerable aid and valuable time devoted to research , to Miss Ri chetta G . Randolph and Julian B . Thomas for the T loan of valuable material and helpful suggestions . O my wife , Edith Shay, my thanks for counsel and help in the arrangement of material and for the compila tion of the bibliography and index . I I J UD GE LYNCH Chapter . Oue THERE WAS A JUDGE NAMED LYNCH IT was not until forty years after his death that the name of a Virginia soldier in the War for Independ ence was given to the practice of summary punishment as - is he had introduced a war time measure . It a long way from the mild , repressive measures of Colonel s was Charle Lynch, who known to some as Judge b ear m Lynch , to the legendary figure g his name whose known victims now number many Of whom went to their deaths by methods almost incon c i l e vab e . Judge Lynch , the real, was an honorable t pa riot , a #uaker whose religious scruples forbade the taking of human life even in war; Judge Lynch, the legend, whose code contains only the sentence of n death, is a savage American whose practices bri g shame to all other Americans . r e A century of lynching, with more than im t t corded vict s in a lit le more han half that time, has placed America in an unenviable position before the 1 anuar 1 1 8 . J y , 93 I 5 JU D G E LY N CH entir e world . It has done incalculable harm not only to as our reputation a civilized country but to ourselves, t our manner of thinking , and the welfare of fu ure gen er ations . No nation, ancient or modern , has been entirely free “ ” — from mobs and mobocracy . But mob law is not - - necessarily lynch law, whereas lynch law is always executed by mobs .

  • Alton H. Blackington Photograph Collection Finding
    Special Collections and University Archives : University Libraries Alton H. Blackington Photograph Collection 1898-1943 15 boxes (4 linear ft.) Call no.: PH 061 Collection overview A native of Rockland, Maine, Alton H. "Blackie" Blackington (1893-1963) was a writer, photojournalist, and radio personality associated with New England "lore and legend." After returning from naval service in the First World War, Blackington joined the staff of the Boston Herald, covering a range of current events, but becoming well known for his human interest features on New England people and customs. He was successful enough by the mid-1920s to establish his own photo service, and although his work remained centered on New England and was based in Boston, he photographed and handled images from across the country. Capitalizing on the trove of New England stories he accumulated as a photojournalist, Blackington became a popular lecturer and from 1933-1953, a radio and later television host on the NBC network, Yankee Yarns, which yielded the books Yankee Yarns (1954) and More Yankee Yarns (1956). This collection of glass plate negatives was purchased by Robb Sagendorf of Yankee Publishing around the time of Blackington's death. Reflecting Blackington's photojournalistic interests, the collection covers a terrain stretching from news of public officials and civic events to local personalities, but the heart of the collection is the dozens of images of typically eccentric New England characters and human interest stories. Most of the images were taken by Blackington on 4x5" dry plate negatives, however many of the later images are made on flexible acetate stock and the collection includes several images by other (unidentified) photographers distributed by the Blackington News Service.

Young This dissertation examines the causes, context, and legacies of the 1927-1928 Colorado coal strike in relationship to the history of labor organizing and coalmining in both Colorado and the United States. While historians have written prolifically about the Ludlow Massacre, which took place during the 1913- 1914 Colorado coal strike led by the United Mine Workers of America, there has been a curious lack of attention to the Columbine Massacre that occurred not far away within the 1927-1928 Colorado coal strike, led by the Industrial Workers of the World (IWW).

  • Cohen, Michael. “The Ku Klux Government”: Vigilantism, Lynching
    JSR_v01i:JSR 12/20/06 8:14 AM Page 31 “The Ku Klux Government”: Vigilantism, Lynching, and the Repression of the IWW ■ Michael Cohen, University of California, Berkeley It is almost always the case that a “spontaneous” movement of the subaltern classes is accompanied by a reactionary movement of the right-wing of the dom- inant class, for concomitant reasons. An economic crisis, for instance, engenders on the one hand discontent among the subaltern classes and spontaneous mass movements, and on the other conspiracies among the reactionary groups, who take advantage of the objective weakening of the government in order to attempt coup d’Etat. —Antonio Gramsci 1 When the true history of this decade shall be written in other and less troubled times; when facts not hidden come to light in details now rendered vague and obscure; truth will show that on some recent date, in a secluded office on Wall Street or luxurious parlor of some wealthy club on lower Manhattan, some score of America’s kings of industry, captains of commerce and Kaisers of finance met in secret conclave and plotted the enslavement of millions of workers. Today details are obscured. The paper on which these lines are penciled is criss-crossed by the shadow of prison bars; my ears are be-set by the clang of steel doors, the jangle of fetters and the curses of jail guards. Truth, before it can speak, is stran- gled by power. Yet the big fact looms up, like a mountain above the morning mists; organ- ized wealth has conspired to enslave Labor, and—in enforcing its will—it stops at nothing, not even midnight murders and wholesale slaughter.

Rhetoric has the power to influence and persuade, therefore when public figures manipulate lynching rhetoric, the meaning of lynching becomes distorted. In part, this thesis explores the difficulty of defining lynching. Among others, key players in this process included Walter White of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP), Monroe Work of the Tuskegee Institute, and Jessie Daniel Ames of the Association of Southern Women for the Prevention of Lynching (ASWPL).
