A Wave Of Modern Day Lynchings
Five Men of Color Have Been Found Hanging in Various Parts of the Country; Many Doubt Official Reports of Suicides
By Terry H. Schwadron, DCReport Opinion Editor
The horror of bodies hanging from trees continues – an expression of some of the worst that humanity serves up. Let’s be clear: Lynching has no place in America.
It’s the “strange fruit” Billie Holiday sang about, the thousands of which the National Memorial for Peace and Justice Museum in Montgomery, Ala., has memorialized. Now, we hear of several new cases of hangings, some of which on investigation may not be suicides as originally reported.
The dead include a 17-year-old African American boy hanging from a tree in an elementary school playground in Spring, Texas; a Latino man in Houston; a black man in New York City; and two in Victorville and nearby Palmdale, Calif.
