Annotation

Anti-Black Violence in Twentieth-Century Texasprovides an arresting look at the history of violence against African Americans in Texas. From a lynching in Paris at the turn of the century to the 1998 murder of Jasper resident James Byrd Jr., who was dragged to death behind a truck, this volume uncovers the violent side of race relations in the Lone Star State. Historian Bruce A. Glasrud has curatedan essential contribution to Texas history and historiography that will also bring attention to a chapter in the state's history that, for many, is still very much a part of the present.
