From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

According to the Equal Justice Initiative, 4084 African Americans were lynched in the South between 1877 and 1950,[1] of which, 25 percent were accused of sexual assault and nearly 30 percent, murder.[1] Many were in public view. White jurisdictions often refused to prosecute (indict) members of lynch mobs. When indictments were filed, all-White juries refused to convict.

In The Confessions of Nat Turner, published in 1831 by Thomas Ruffin Gray, Turner explains how he saw the divine signs that vindicated him as an instrument of vengeance and established his prophetic status.

"The hour of grim revel at length came, and the American Sampson [sic] raised his hand, but for a purpose far different than that which the poet dreaded – not to shake, but to stay up the tottering temple of American liberties – that temple in which he had only received insult and and unutterable wrong."

  • March 22, 1894: Hope Hall, Liverpool, "Lynch Law in the Southern States of America". Hope Hall was a revivalist preaching house that stood from 1853 to 1916. The lecture was attended by Sir Edward Russell, editor of the Liverpool Post. The event was supported by Rev. Charles Frederic Aked (1864–1941), who, from 1907 to 1911, was pastor of the John D. Rockefeller Church (Fifth Avenue Baptist) in Manhattan, the forerunner to Riverside Church. Celestine Edwards also supported the event. Ida chose "Aked" as the middle name of her first child with Ferdinand: Charles Aked Barnett.
  • March 25, 1894; 3:30 pm: Men's Pleasant Sunday Afternoon Society (P.S.A.), aka Men's Own Brotherhood – at the Norwood Congregational Church, West Derby Road, Liverpool, "The Disabilities and Wrongs of the Colored Race in the Southern States of America".

Thomas Blackshear

[edit]

On February 1, 1990, at the start of Black History Month in the U.S., the U.S. Postal Service dedicated a 25¢ stamp commemorating Wells in a ceremony at the Museum of Science and Industry in Chicago. The stamp, designed by Thomas Blackshear II, features a portrait of Wells illustrated from a composite of photographs of her taken during the mid-1890s. Wells is the twenty-fifth African American entry – and fourth woman African American – on a U.S. Postage stamp. She is the thirteenth in the Postal Service's Black Heritage series.

    55. Townes, in Womanist Hope, Womanist Justice, discusses the Willard/Wells conflict as a quintessential case study in conflict between black and white womanist/feminist agendas. In Beyond the Pale: White Women, Racism and History, Vron Ware recounts the hostile response Ida B. Wells provoked when she republished Frances Willard's 1890 New York Voice interview implying lynching was a national necessity (New York: Verso, 1992).
