LYNCHING IN AMERICA, DON’T FORGET THIS HUMAN DISASTER
The Willie Lynch Letter And the Making of A Slave By Willie Lynch. “The Willie Lynch Letter” written by Willie Lynch is widely considered to be one of the top 100 most controversial books of all time. For many, “The Willie Lynch Letter” is required reading for various courses and curriculums. And for others “The Willie Lynch Letter” is simply a highly controversial book that they must have as a reference tool, and for self-enlightenment. This beautifully produced volume, which includes both “The Mis-Education of the Negro” and “The Willie Lynch Letter,” should be a part of everyone’s personal library.
This speech was delivered by Willie Lynch on the bank of the James River in the colony of Virginia in 1712. Lynch was a British slave owner in the West Indies. He was invited to the colony of Virginia in 1712 to teach his methods to slaveowners there. The term “lynching” is derived from his last name.
There is no secret under the sun and nothing new. Racism is king, and slavery still exists. But the form of this slavery chosen by the Anglo-Saxon colonists of what is today the USA has no equivalent under the sun, except maybe a certain Holocaust.
