Nearly 5,000 black Americans were lynched between 1890 and 1960, and asSherrilyn Ifill argues, the effects of this racial trauma continue to resound.While the lynchings were devastating, the little-known contemporaryconsequences, such as the marginalization of political and economicdevelopment for blacks, are equally pernicious. Ifill traces the lingering effects of two lynchings in Maryland to illustrate how ubiquitous this history is, and she issues a clarion call for the many American communities with histories of racial violence to be proactive in facing this legacy.
