It provides a vivid and representative expose of the terrible white racist violence that was directed against Negroes toward the end of the nineteenth century in New Orleans and elsewhere. The author, Ida Wells-Barnett, was contemporary to these events. We feel we are there because she in fact was there at the very time these things were happening. So what we have here is not just a book but a historical document Excerpt from the introduction STRUGGLING AGAINST RACISM, THEN AND NOW by Michael Parenti. Parenti received his Ph.D. in political science from Yale. He is an award winning author and activist who has published some 250 articles and 19 books.

Download or read book Mob Rule in New Orleans written by Ida B. Wells-Barnett and published by 谷月社. This book was released on 2015-11-07 with total page 25 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Immediately after the awful barbarism which disgraced the State of Georgia in April of last year, during which time more than a dozen colored people were put to death with unspeakable barbarity, I published a full report showing that Sam Hose, who was burned to death during that time, never committed a criminal assault, and that he killed his employer in self-defense. Since that time I have been engaged on a work not yet finished, which I interrupt now to tell the story of the mob in New Orleans, which, despising all law, roamed the streets day and night, searching for colored men and women, whom they beat, shot and killed at will. In the account of the New Orleans mob I have used freely the graphic reports of the New Orleans Times-Democrat and the New Orleans Picayune. Both papers gave the most minute details of the week's disorder. In their editorial comment they were at all times most urgent in their defense of law and in the strongest terms they condemned the infamous work of the mob. It is no doubt owing to the determined stand for law and order taken by these great dailies and the courageous action taken by the best citizens of New Orleans, who rallied to the support of the civic authorities, that prevented a massacre of colored people awful to contemplate. The publisher hereof does not attempt to moralize over the deplorable condition of affairs shown in this publication, but simply presents the facts in a plain, unvarnished, connected way, so that he who runs may read. We do not believe that the American people who have encouraged such scenes by their indifference will read unmoved these accounts of brutality, injustice and oppression. We do not believe that the moral conscience of the nation—that which is highest and best among us—will always remain silent in face of such outrages, for God is not dead, and His Spirit is not entirely driven from men's hearts.

Book excerpt: She was an American investigative journalist, educator, and an early leader in the civil rights movement. n the 1890s, Wells documented lynching in the United States through her pamphlet called Southern Horrors: Lynch Law in all its Phases, investigating frequent claims of whites that lynchings were reserved for black criminals only. Wells exposed lynching as a barbaric practice of whites in the South used to intimidate and oppress African Americans who created economic and political competition-and a subsequent threat of loss of power-for whites. A white mob destroyed her newspaper office and presses as her investigative reporting was carried nationally in black-owned newspapers.
