A proposito di questo titolo
 So many American's like their history manufactured and packaged to suit their world view. They prefer the history they injest to be highly palatable and easily digested, an entree meant to reassure themselves of their own exceptionalism. However, history is as complicated as humanity itself, why would it be anything else? History is, afterall, the study of our ansestors and thus, in a fashion, of ourselves. If history doesn't confront our miscoceptions with stark realities and lessons from the past, what good is it? Historians and authors London Talbot and Mark Iverson run towards these subjects! They enjoy diving in the mess that is American history. Highway to History is the recorded record of their attemot to have interesting and challenging conversations about America's past, present and future. Step on in our 1978 GMC Kingsley motorhome and listen up!IdaHistory 2024 Mondiale Scienze sociali

    10: Highway to History #10 - A Very Biased History of the Lynching of Black Americans
    Jan 22 2025
    After the Civil War concluded in 1865, and the failure of Reconstruction in the South, the white citizens of the southern states unleashed a system of race based terrorism on black Americans so severe it caused The Great Migration northward, wherein black southerners emigrated in mass to northern cities and towns to start new lives. In the North, tragically, they'd face the same type of systematic violence they did in the South on a smaller scale, but no less savage. The terror was called lynching and it was perpetrated by various brutal means, not just hanging. The legacy of lynching can still be felt today throughout America, though many choose to look away rather than confront Lynching's impact on the United States.
