À propos de ce contenu audio
Author Philip Dray on this edition of Fresh Air. Philip Dray is the author of the book At the Hands of Persons Unknown: The Lynching of Black America. Dray chronicles the incidents of lynching: from 1882-85 the number of whites lynched exceeded the number of blacks. But after 1886 the number of blacks lynched exceeded that of whites. And not until 1952 did a year pass without a single recorded lynching. He looks at the perpetrators and the groups and individuals who courageously took a stand against it (the NAACP, Ida Wells, and W. E. B. Du Bois) and the legacy it left behind. Dray researched his book at the Tuskegee Institute, where records about lynchings have been kept from 1882. Dray is also the coauthor of We Are Not Afraid: The Story of Goodman, Schwerner, and Chaney and the Civil Rights Campaign for Mississippi. (Broadcast date: January 21, 2002)
