Lynchings in Oklahoma: a 100 year history

TopCast welcomes author Charles Clark who will discuss his new book “Lynchings in Oklahoma” due for release this summer. Mr. Clark delivers a powerful series of vignettes of a bitter and nearly forgotten chapter of Oklahoma history. It reconstructs the violent, often deadly encounters between the lawless and the so-called lawful during the territorial and early statehood years. It chronicles the unrestrained racial brutality that frequently raged out of control during those years.
