This man was lynched then set on fire and shot over 100 times. One of many types of brutal killings against people of color at that time. People came out to watch as if they were watching a sporting event.


The peak of this horrific practice occurred in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, with an average of over 150 lynchings per year in the 1890s. Almost no perpetrators of these lynching were ever convicted.

But, out of all the lynchings, Mary Turner’s remains arguably the most shocking and gruesome of all recorded lynchings from that time.

It defied even the twisted norms of racial violence that prevailed at the time.

While lynching was a common tool of terror used to maintain white supremacy, the murder of a pregnant woman and her unborn child was considered a transgression even within the warped logic of that era.

It is a story that must be told, not to reopen old wounds, but to ensure that such atrocities are never forgotten and never repeated
