Our Purpose

By aggregating and parsing news from incoming sources, the public can remain informed and current on the lynchings being perpetrated in the Black Community. After enough time, the data collected could be used for statistical and criminal analysis. Once we have gathered enough information, legislature and reformation can be properly implemented in order to further protect the Black Community. Every week, we’re hearing about Black people being found dead under suspicious circumstances. We believe it is important to keep track of these events. Aggregating information about these killings can help our society by having a single place where you can find information, and stay informed about cases of racial violence in the US. LynchWatch should be an organized effort to consolidate information about these cases, keep people informed, and continue the march towards true equality and justice.
