History

Crazy boy [7]3 years ago

The overall tone of Lewis' speech was angry and strong. For some, the speech sounded too belligerent. John Lewis changed parts of his speech at the request of Martin Luther King, Jr. Lewis said he could not say no to King because King was his hero, his inspiration.
The part where Lewis said they cannot wholeheartedly support the administration's civil rights bill for it is too little and too late was removed from his revised speech.
Lewis' original speech "We will march through the South, through the heart of Dixie, the way Sherman did" was changed to "we will march with the spirit of love and with the spirit of dignity that we have shown here today"

4. Does Wells place blame only on those that orchestrate the lynching? Whom else does she blame?
Crazy boy [7]

Wells blames a system in which racist ideology and violence against blacks has become a norm.

She describes in her text that there is an "unwritten law" that whites in particular white women, are in danger when living surrounding by blacks. The lynchings are public and made into a media spectacle. This behavior supports the mob, encourages the mob, and escalates the violence taking place because it literally supported or at the very least no one speaks out against it.

Lynching in America became common following the passage of the Civil War amendments and the end of Reconstruction. To maintain power structure in states where whites were completely outnumbered by blacks, fear and violence ruled. Ida B. Wells was considered a "muckraker", a journalist who exposed the muck or dirt of society. She investigated and exposed the lynching culture of the South. Despite, the support and disgust by many Americans who read her work, no anti-lynching law ever went to effect.
