"Professor Ifill has written a sobering and eye opening book on one
of America's darkest secrets. On the Courthouse Lawn offers a compelling
examination of lynchings, and describes the failure of people and institutions
to adequately address one of America's tragedies. Racial amnesia would suggest
we forget this history. Professor Ifill assures us that we can't—and
should not—forget it. This is a must read for anyone willing to examine
our history carefully and learn from it." —Professor Charles J.
