Through the constant threat of extreme racial violence\, lynching served to control Black communities politically\, socially\, and culturally. Thi s lecture will discuss how lynching photography and representations of lyn ching in American art provide historical information and context for racia l violence in the United States. We will also discuss how lynching photogr aphy has shaped our understanding of depictions of racial violence in cont emporary society.\n\nLaNitra M.
