Ever wonder where the word lynching came from? It's said to be named after Willie Lynch, a slave owner in the West Indies who taught slave owners in America how to make and break a slave. Listen to the reading of this letter for yourself, and see what similarities you can draw from the mental, physical, emotional, and economic state of Blacks in America today. Is it a coincidence? You decide for yourself. It's a rather long recording, so I encourage you to grab a cup of coffee or tea, sit back, relax, listen, and learn what you can. Sometimes, it's what we don't know that can truly hurt us.
Thank you for listening.
