Started when a black Rosewood resident was lynched because of unsupported accusations that a white woman in nearby Sumner had been beaten and possibly raped by a black drifter. When the townâs black citizens rallied together to defend themselves against further attacks, a mob of several hundred whites combed the countryside hunting for black people, and burned almost every structure in Rosewood!Â
THIS IS THE STORY OF Â ROBIN STACY
Reuben Stacy, a 37-year-old black man, hangs from a tree on Old Davie Road in Fort Lauderdale, blood trickling down his body and dripping off his toes. Behind him, a white girl, about 7 years old, looks on, a strange smile on her face as she takes in the sight of the âstrange fruitâ her elders had just created that hot day in July 1935.
Stacy was accused of attempting to assault a white woman in her home after first asking for a glass of water. According to a 1993 telling of the story, he was arrested three days later 25 miles from the scene. But no trial was ever conducted, and mere hours after his arrest, Stacy was hanged and shot.
The infamous photograph of Stacyâs death might be one of the few visual accounts of a lynching in Florida, but a new report from the Equal Justice Initiative about lynching across the American South reminds us that the Sunshine State was among the most brutal in the country when it come to race-fueled executions of black people. Per capita, Floridians lynched at a higher rate than any other state.
the story of a black man who was hung,had his lifeless corpse dragged through the street and set on fire to the cheers of the Omaha citizens all for a false rape accusation.
âSensationalized local mediaâ reports of the alleged rape of 19-year-old Agnes Loebeck on September 25, 1919 triggered the violence associate with Will Brownâs lynching. The following day, police arrested 41-year-old Will Brown as a suspect. Loebeck identified Brown as her rapist, although later reports by the Omaha Police Department and the United States Armystated that she had not made a positive identification. There was an unsuccessful attempt to lynch Brown on the day of his arrest.
The Omaha Bee, which published a series of sensational articles alleging many incidents of black outrages, publicized the incident as one of a series of alleged attacks on white women by black men.A political machine opposed to the newly elected reform administration of Mayor Smith controlled the Omaha Bee. It highlighted alleged incidents of âblack criminalityâ to embarrass the new administration. more here
They burned him alive in an iron cage, and as he screamed and writhed in the agony of hell they made a sport of his death!!
His name was  Jesse Washington.
Here is the photograph. Take a good look at Jesse Washingtonâs stiffened body tied to the tree. He had been sentenced to death for the murder of a white woman. No witnesses saw the crime; he allegedly confessed but the truth of the allegations would never be tested. The grand jury took just four minutes to return a guilty verdict, but there was no appeal, no review, no prison time. Instead, a courtroom mob dragged him outside, pinned him to the ground, and cut off his testicles. A bonfire was quickly built and lit. For two hours, Jesse Washington â alive â was raised and lowered over the flames. Again and again and again. City officials and police stood by, approvingly. According to some estimates, the crowd grew to as many as 15,000. There were taunts, cheers and laughter. Reporters described hearing âshouts of delight.â
When the flames died away, Washingtonâs body was torn apart and the pieces were sold as souvenirs!! more there
The 1920 Duluth Lynching began much like the Marion Lynching - a girl, 19 year old Irene Tusken and her man, 18 year old James Sullivan claiming rape and assault against six black laborers in the James Robinson Circus. Though a physicianâs inspection of Tusken showed no sign of rape or assault, rumors began to spread throughout the town that Tusken had died from the incident. The six men said to be responsible were imprisoned in the Duluth city jail in the local police station. Thousands of whites gathered outside, armed to the teeth, pelting the facade of the jail and took six men, including Elias Clayton, Elmer Jackson, and Isaac McGhie. Not a shot was fired by police, who had been ordered not to resist.
A false trial was held for the six men, and Clayton, Jackson, and McGhie were found guilty by the mob of raping Irene Tusken. They were then beaten and hung on a lamp post in the main thoroughfare of the town; the mob thereafter dispersed. The men in the mob believed to be responsible for the killings either slipped through the fingers of authorities or were acquitted by sympathetic juries; ultimately, the only resulting convictions were related to charges of rioting. more here
Thomas Shipp and Abram Smith were African American men who were lynchedon August 7, 1930, in Marion, Indiana, after being taken from jail and beaten by a mob. They had been arrested that night as suspects in a robbery, murder and rape case. A third African American suspect, more here
Not seen in the picture above is James Herbert Cameron the third boy to be lynched. HE MIRACULOUSLY SURVIVED!!l
On Aug. 7, 1930, 16-year-old Cameron and two older teenage friends, Thomas Shipp and Abram Smith were arrested and accused of murder, robbery and rape. A whyte couple was parked in a lovers lane when the trio came upon them and one of the group suggested robbing the couple. Cameron later said he changed his mind and ran away before the man, Claude Deeter, 23, was fatally shot. The woman later denied being raped. The three were caught quickly and arrested and charged the same night.
A lynch mob broke into the jail where Cameron and his two friends were being held. According to Cameronâs own account, the two older boys were taken out first, beaten and lynched by a mob of 12,000-15,000 at the Grant County Courthouse Square. Shipp was taken out and beaten, hanged from the bars of his jail window; Smith was dead from beating before the mob hanged both the boys from a tree in the square. The bodies of these two men, Tom Shipp, 18, and Abraham Smith, 19, hanging from a tree is depicted in a famous and disturbing photograph.
Following an altercation with a group of white teens, nine Black teenagers were accused of rape by two women in 1931 in Paint Rock, Alabama. Eventually, one of the women admitted to fabricating the story. The Scottsboro case is considered a landmark case, leading to the prohibition on all-white juries.
Five Black and Hispanic boys between the ages of 14-16 were convicted of the 1989 assault and rape of Trisha Meili, a white woman who was jogging in New Yorkâs Central Park, in a case that drew national headlines and outraged many in the city. They were convicted on the basis of coerced confessions and faulty scientific evidence. The convictions were vacated in 2002 when Matias Reyes, a convicted rapist and murderer serving a life sentence for other crimes, confessed to committing the crime alone and DNA evidence confirmed his involvement in the rape. Â
In 1984, Hunt, an African-American man from Winston-Salem, North Carolina, at the age of 19 was convicted of the rape and murder of a white woman named Deborah Sykes â despite the fact that there was no physical evidence tying him to the crimes. Even with no evidence, he was sentenced by an all-white jury to life in prison. Ten years later, he was cleared of the rape when DNA testing proved he had never committed that crime. Despite the rape being central to the overall crime, he spent an additional nine years in prison until a man named Willard Brown confessed to both acts. After 19 years in prison, Hunt was finally exonerated in 2004.Â
SADLY NOT TOO LONG AFTER HIS EXONERATION HE TOOK HIS OWN LIFE.Â
I donât think itâs unreasonable to say that if he was not robbed of 19 years of his life and forced to live in a cage like an animal he might still be alive. He probably wouldnât have given up.
did 28 years in prison for a sexual assault conviction. Moses-EL was charged with rape in 1987. Initially, the rape victim named the three men she had been drinking with as her possible attackers. Then, a day and a half later, she dreamed that her neighbor, Clarence Moses-EL, was the attacker. She told the police, and they arrested him. The three men she first named were never investigated. There was no physical evidence linking Moses-EL to the crime.The dream was the only piece of âevidenceâ offered against him. LET ME SAY THAT AGAIN! The DREAM was the only ONLY PIECE OF âEVIDENCEâ offered against him !!! The FUCKING DREAM was the only ONLY PIECE OF âEVIDENCEâ offered against him !!!
In the summer of 2002, Banks was arrested and charged after classmate Wanetta Gibson falsely accused him of dragging her into a stairway at Polytechnic High School (Poly) and raping her. In March 2011, Gibson contacted Banks on Facebook! âSORRY I FALSELY ACCUSED YOU OF RAPE,MY BAD.âÂ
An then there are the flat-out hoaxes
Season Smith killed her own children and blamed it on a black man who didnât exist
Bonnie Sweeten said two black men snatched her and her 9-year-old daughter from their SUV and abducted them in the trunk of a black Cadillac only to be found she was in a luxury hotel at Disney World.Â
Then Breana Harmon Talbott who made up a widely publicized story of being kidnapped and raped by 3 black men, police say?
in 2017 this Pure White virginal Aryan wannabe Barbie had the brilliant idea of making a rape hoax in the state of  Texas falsely accusing black men. Was she trying to start a Witch Hunt or a race war?
Now Iâm not calling anyone racist but a lot of you would be in those photos smiling as those niggers were burning to death not because you were racist but because you choose to blindly listen and believe without question because it aligns with your political beliefs.
