From the Pulitzer Prize-winning author of Been in the Storm So Long.\"The stain of Jim Crow runs deep in 20th-century America.... Its effects remain the nation's most pressing business. Trouble in Mind is an absolutely essential account of its dreadful history and calamitous legacy.\" -The Washington PostIn April 1899, Black laborer Sam Hose killed his white boss in self-defense. Wrongly accused of raping the man's wife, Hose was mutilated, stabbed, and burned alive in front of 2,000 cheering whites. His body was sold piecemeal to souvenir seekers; an Atlanta grocery displayed his knuckles in its front window for a week.Drawing on new documentation and first-person accounts, Litwack describes the injustices-both institutional and personal-inflicted against a people. Here, too, are the Black men and women whose activism, literature, and music preserved the genius of the human spirit.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51536449601824,"sku":"NEW0375702636","price":19.57,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0980\/7426\/3840\/files\/71KV3W9QmpL.jpg?v=1777416285","url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/trouble-in-mind-0375702636","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
