Why is the Negro Lynched?

Published shortly before his death in 1895, 'Why is the Negro Lynched?' is Frederick Douglass's powerful appeal for justice against the widespread slander of African American morality. In this essay, Douglass confronts the racist narratives that justified lynching and seeks to reclaim the dignity of the Black community. This work is notable for its direct challenge to societal prejudices and its call for accountability in the face of racial violence.
