- Title
Racial Violence in the West.
- Authors
Martinez, Monica Muñoz
- Abstract
The lynching culture in the United States is popularly understood to exist within a white and Black binary, seminal works by William Carrigan, Clive Webb, and Ken Gonzales-Day have now shifted our view to the American southwest. Gonzales-Day argued that with the advent of lynching photographs being widely circulated, the "public" audiences that were spectators of lynchings were far greater than those who attended the actual event.
