History Talk Thursday is more than a LIVE—it's a conversation.

Every other Thursday, we take one question from Black history, look at the history behind it, and talk about what it means together.

And I've created FREE study guides for every episode so you can keep exploring after the conversation ends. đź“š

Inside you'll find historical background, key people and events, discussion questions, and trusted resources to continue learning.

Was justice ever served?

On September 15, 1963, Birmingham experienced a day of devastating racial violence. And when we look at what happened afterward, we're left with difficult questions about justice, accountability, and what it means when justice comes years—or even decades—later.

This History Talk Thursday, we're having that conversation.

Episode 4: Was Justice Ever Served?

🗓️ Thursday
⏰ 7 PM ET
đź“Ť LIVE on TikTok

I don't want to just tell you what to think. I want us to look at the history and talk about it together.

What does justice served mean to you?

When justice comes decades later—or never comes at all—can we truly call it justice?

He was helping Black people vote. He was killed outside a courthouse. And justice never came.

Lamar Smith was 63 when he was murdered in Brookhaven, Mississippi, on August 13, 1955. Witnesses were nearby, but no one was held accountable.

His story deserves to be remembered—and his name deserves to be known.

This Thursday, join me for History Talk Thursday: “Was Justice Ever Served?” on TikTok at 7 PM Eastern. 💜

Had you heard of Lamar Smith before?

More than 4,400 Black people killed in racial terror lynchings between 1877 and 1950 are remembered at the National Memorial for Peace and Justice in Montgomery, Alabama.

More than 800 steel monuments represent counties where racial terror lynchings took place, with names and dates engraved into the memorial.

And even with thousands of documented victims, I believe we may never truly know the full number of Black people who were lynched in America.

Many were never accused of a crime at all. Some were targeted for violating racial customs, refusing to show submission, becoming successful, standing up for themselves, or demanding the rights they were already entitled to.

This place reminds us of the violence Black people faced simply for being Black — and why this history must remain visible.

Anthony Crawford wasn’t accused of a crime.

He was a successful Black farmer and landowner in Abbeville, South Carolina. On October 21, 1916, he went into town to sell his cotton. A disagreement over the price quickly escalated into violence.

Crawford was arrested, released on bail, attacked again, and eventually taken back into custody.

From his jail cell, after being brutally beaten, he was heard saying:

**“I thought I was a good citizen.”**

A white mob later entered the jail, dragged him through town, lynched him from a pine tree, and fired bullets into his body.

Afterward, the coroner’s jury claimed he had died at the hands of **“parties unknown.”**

No one was prosecuted.

His family was then ordered to leave town within three weeks.

Anthony Crawford’s story is another reminder that during Jim Crow, Black success, independence, and refusing to submit could make someone a target.

Lynching in America was not always hidden.

Crowds gathered. Newspapers announced events. Photographers documented them. Some of those photographs were later turned into postcards and kept or sold as souvenirs.

That is one of the hardest parts of this history to understand — these were murders, yet they were often treated as public spectacles.

Lynching was used as racial terror to intimidate Black communities and reinforce white supremacy.

People like Ida B. Wells and Walter White worked to expose what was happening, while the NAACP spent decades fighting against lynching and pushing for federal anti-lynching legislation.

This history is difficult, but it should not be forgotten.

**Lynching in America was a crime carried out in public — and too often, justice was never served.**

This wasn't just history to Rebecca Jane Grant. This was her childhood.

In Part 2 of Rebecca's story, she remembers being separated from members of her family and being taken to Beaufort, South Carolina.

She also remembers what life was like for her and her siblings when they were still too young to work. In her own words, Rebecca called them the “chillun” and remembered the “old folks” who looked after them.

And more than 80 years later, she could still remember something as ordinary—and as revealing—as how they were fed.

These are the details that make firsthand accounts so important. We aren't only learning about slavery. We're hearing how one woman remembered living through it.

History asks us to look beyond what happened and think about the choices people had to make.

In 1961, the Freedom Riders boarded interstate buses to challenge segregation—knowing they could face arrest, violence, and even death.

So I'm asking you:

🚌 **Would you have gotten on the bus?**

That's the question we'll explore during the next **History Talk Thursday** as we talk about the Freedom Riders, their courage, the risks they faced, and the impact they had on the Civil Rights Movement.

Join me Thursday at **7 PM ET** for the conversation. On TikTok
