NYC, A Man Was Lynched Yesterday,1936

Flag, announcing lynching, flown from the window of the NAACP headquarters on 69 Fifth Avenue, NYC. The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) is a civil rights organization in the United States, formed in 1909 as a bi-racial endeavor to advance justice for African-Americans.  Lynchings rose in number after the American Civil War, following the emancipation of slaves; they declined in the 1920s but have continued to take place into the 21st century. Most lynchings were of African-American men in the South. Visual Materials from the NAACP, 1936.
