The old courthouse on Dealey Plaza. About a hundred years ago, a black guy was accused of molesting a little white girl in Dallas. The circumstances of the charge are murky. It kinda looks like one of his pals settled a grudge, setting him up by sprinkling chicken blood on the little girls underwear. The authorities hid him in the court house but the lynch mob found him there. They tied a noose around his neck and pulled him from the street out a second floor window, on this side, I think. They dragged him up Elm Street to the corner of Akard and hung him from a lamppost. Somewhere in all this, he died. A vendor took a photo of the hanging, made post cards of it, and sold them in the city. I think that old Dallas was probably hell for black people. I’ve heard worse stories but not as well documented. People burned alive in Texas town squares.
