Book Reviews of Negrophobia: A Race Riot in Atlanta, 1906

Book Review: Good Read
Summary: 4 Stars

I believe the author did an excellent job in painting the climate that initiated the white mob slaughter of the black population in 1906 in Atlanta. The Atlanta Journal , other newspapers, and politicians are directly responsible for stroking racial hatred and white fear for black citizens.

People who say that the media doesn't have an influence on the mindset of the viewers are in absolute denial of the media's power to project images - positive or negative. Look at today's media and how they purposely demonize Black Americans. Images are powerful.

For black Americans there was/is no such thing as justice. It is "just us" justice. It was a painful book to read, but a must read.

I recommend it strongly.
