“When events like the lynching of Emmett Till are not examined by those who have empathy, change is rare. Laying out our humanity so carefully. It will still be denied and ignored by many, but it’s real. The image of who African Americans are as humans has been so distorted for so long and has caused and continues to cause so much trauma. Too many names, too many families. I applaud every documentation of the character of those who have brought that violence, pain, and hurt upon us, based in nothing but mere falsehoods. This work is important. Not so we can frame those who hate us in any generalized terms or labels like it has been our experience. We (African Americans) were framed as naturally stupid by stupid men. Many of who held high positions and were greatly miseducated. Renowned philosophers and founders. But it takes genuine intelligence to show the villainous character of such brutality without painting an entire group with a broad brush. This work and all of those like it will serve as more than counter narrative. It is a fortifying mirror that allows everyone willing, to look hard and deep at truth. Truth creates positive, progressive change. Excellent work. I recommend highly. And I don’t say that about any and everything. 🙏🏾💜☮️”

“I discovered this atrocity in the late 90s and was shocked that my father, who was raised in Oklahoma, wasn’t aware of it. We need to learn and confront our history and become better from that knowledge.”

“This is a tribute to the African American lives lost during the Red Summer. All over this country, African Americans died by the thousands because of prejudice, racism and revenge. Thank you Steve Osunsami for investigating this lost chapter of our history! I will return for every episode!”
