I'm a baby boomer...born in 1956. Racism is still alive and well in this country. But thank God for the barrier breakers, freedom riders and fighters, those whose voices have been silenced, and voices that will not be silenced! Thank you, Sir, for sharing this story and many others like it. I pray that those responsible for these heinous acts of violence repented. The same goes for those guilty of similar acts of violence today. My prayers and sympathy are with all whose lives have been impacted by the sin of bigotry, fear, and hatred. Whether the instigators and/or perpetrators repent or not, one thing is certain (and make no mistake about it): Justice WILL be served! God will see to that!!

it depends, in Jamaica: Paul Bogle a Pastor and National Hero was beaten and hanged but some of his compatriots were tied down given over 325 lashes; they even wrote it in a book about the people who received from 100 - 325 hundred lashes. The slaves in Jamaica fought back they did not lie down and took the wicked treatment. No, they plotted against the plantation owners; the slaves in Jamaica received the harshest treat but became the fiercest fighters. They were shot, hanged, burnt alive, whipped, starved to death, hunted like rabbits but the Jamaican slaves NEVER gave up. This is one of the reasons I love/hate history.

They all often talked about the Klan and the the Sheriff and showing up on sharecropper land to take away men,women and children in the dead of night. Never for them to be seen again. So the recorded lynchings were just a drop in the bucket. But sometimes bodies would be discovered in the woods. Or they would show up in Lakes,rivers or streams. Needless to say the people were terrified. In some instances the people gathered to march to the Governors mansion to plead for mercy and help. Only for it to fail on death ears.There was no protection from the core power structures of law enforcement, judges and elected officials. Either you kept your mouth shut.Left town or died.

I have never heard this story. This travesty is beyond sad! It's sickening. that this coalition of hate and injustice was csrried out under the protection of the Law!

[@yasharyahudah1400]

I appreciate the work you're doing bringing out our history and the white man's evil deeds!

[@stirlingpickett5253]

Thanks so much for sharing this story about the Lowmans they suffered so much hatred it just hurts so bad that these people could do such things and get away with it

[@MernaWilliams-s4j]

It makes me very angry and sad . I was raised in the South and can remember Jim Crow Law very well. I remember going to the doctor, and blacks having to sit on one side that wasn't as clear and nice as the side were the white patient sat . It still hurt until this day at 63 years old. I still see some problems from the Jim Crow Era. Shame on America ❤❤

" Our skin is our sin " 💔🙏🏾. Thank you for this story of our mighty ANCESTOR'S

[@MyronLewis-z1o]

They continue to kill us with impunity and no repercussions. What's good for the goose is good for the gander. Just my humble opinion.

[@WellMichele]

I did but it’s still heart wrenching to hear it again. Thank you for bringing this content.

[@herbsnead5092]

I think that these historical facts should be permanently posted publicly in the city where they happened and at the location where they happened if possible. This is the history that some people want to act like it never happened

Those same people have seats in congress!😮 And the Supreme Court 😮. Weed them out, VOTE THEM OUT…………!

[@marycrowther8813]

❤❤❤❤❤❤❤yes,yes,yes

[@mojoman2001]

That was 100 years ago. Those same people are all dead.

[@eulaliabradley4991]

You can't vote The Supreme Court out

[@eulaliabradley4991]

​@@mojoman2001Is Hitler still alive? (Jews) Is Franklin D. Roosevelt still alive? (Japanese) Is Lyndon B. Johnson still alive? ( Vietnamese) I can go on and on for the fight for Reparations

[@mojoman2001]

@@eulaliabradley4991 -- None of those dead leaders who you mention have seats in Congress, which was my point to the OP who wrote that "those same people" have seats in Congress and the Supreme Court.

Farmers were all dark in complexion. You can hardly find any nowadays.

I am a Lowman! Not sure if i'm related to these Lowmans, but i wouldn't be surprised if i am. This was a heartbreaking story.

[@elizabethf8243]

I had never heard of the Lowmans' story. We're from Ravenel, SC on my mom's side. I wonder what happened to Sam Lowman's land, whether it was stolen, after they jailed him & murdered his family.

[@missbttrsctch]

Thank you SO VERY much for keeping our stories alive!! I had not heard of The Lowmans; but, this sounds like plenty of stories I've heard about MANY other Black people in this hellacious corporation of a country! These stories ENRAGE me & makes me sick to my stomach that ANY of us CHOOSES to lay with any of them!

[@missbttrsctch]

CASH reparations NOW!!
