Text

Actions, words, and even perceived attitudes of black men and women could be cause for lynching in much of the nineteenth and twentieth century. In Early County, Sidney Grist was hanged with the only cited cause being “political activity” without further explanation. He was lynched on the last day of the year 1896.
