About this audiobook

This pamphlet is a must read for my fellow white people. It details the horrors of the South's Lynch mobs and their brutality against the regions Black inhabitants in the form of case studies and examinations of motives for these heinous crimes. Wells examines the prevailing attitudes toward Black Americans and the way that white Southerners enacted terror toward their Black contemporaries. Wells also lists the ways in which Black people can fight back, one of the most prominent being boycott of industries that treat Black people as subhuman. This pamphlet is important. We need to know our history and we need to not be complacent in hiding the past. (Goodreads)
