“Lynch law was never repealed.” Glen Ford
Black people are still being lynched at a rate of one every day. The Malcolm X Grassroots Movementdocumented in a 2013 report, “Operation Ghetto Storm”, that a black person is the victim of an extra-judicial killing every 28 hours. We may hear the name of some of those individuals as in the case of Trayvon Martin, but he was joined by 300 other black people in 2012 whose names we didn’t know.
