ladydeelg ASKED:
not a questio, but i just wanted to say that in France, Italians were also lynched.. there was a huge anti Italian sentiment in the late 19th century, especially towards Souther Italians who were darker skinned than norther Italians! love your stuff!
Wow, thanks for sharing that (sobering) thought. And thanks for the nice words. I’ve got a radio piece on this subject airing on Monday — Columbus Day — so tune in to WNYC!
