Sundown Towns - TANGENTS & TRUE CRIME

from Ladies & Tangents · host Ladies & Tangents | Para Pods

We have debated venturing back into the world of true crime, but wanted to make sure what we were covering was meaningful, informative and frankly a crime for us not to know. This week we're talking about Sundown towns. If you've never heard of these, you're not alone. Sundown towns are a part of the white-washed, buried, dark history that America actively tries to pretend didn't happen, and in some places may still be happening. It is imperative to know our history, lest we be doomed to repeat it. Along with learning about Sundown Towns, we discuss the murder of Carol Jenkins and why it took 30 years for her killer to be caught.   RESOURCES- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sundown_town https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Murder_of_Carol_Jenkins https://www.blackpast.org/african-american-history/sundown-towns/ https://justice.tougaloo.edu/sundown-towns/using-the-sundown-towns-database/state-map/ https://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2002/01/07/who-killed-carol-jenkins WE'RE GOING ON TOUR - https://www.ladiesandtangents.com/live-show WE’RE ON CAMEO - https://www.cameo.com/ladiesandtangents WE'RE ON PATREON - patreon.com/ladiesandtangents MERCH - https://ladiesandtangents.kingsroadmerch.com/ *NEW* SUBMIT YOUR STORIES - [email protected] FOLLOW ALONG WITH US ON SOCIAL MEDIA - @ladiesandtangents   GAZA/WEST BANK RESOURCES- https://medium.com/@scholarscoalition/for-immediate-release-u-s-4c2aecd11535 https://irusa.org/middle-east/palestine/ https://buildpalestine.com/2021/05/15/trusted-organizations-to-donate-to-palestine/ https://www.vox.com/2015/5/14/18093732/israel-palestine-misconceptions https://www.goodreads.com/en/book/show/52045757   Learn more about your ad choices.
