Description

Ida B. Wells-Barnett is the author of the book 'Mob Rule in New Orleans.' This is a genuine narrative of Robert Charles' struggle to survive a lynching mob as he flees for his life. This compelling account works in tandem with Well's described horrific event's eyewitness. Wells portrays the heartbreaking reality of violent lynching throughout the 19th century by using her literary talents to highlight racial injustice, media bias, and her fight for justice. Mob Rule in New Orleans was written by Ida B. She had experienced discrimination all of her life, so she was well aware of how society would permit unfair offenses to go unpunished. During this time, a lot of African-Americans experienced discrimination. Wells-Barnett examines the various inconsistencies in the media's reporting of Robert Charles's lynching and the violence that preceded his death in Mob Rule in New Orleans. The author showed how whites use the media's portrayal of Charles as a thief as justification. The author examines the various inconsistencies in the media's reporting of Robert Charles's lynching and the violence that preceded his death in Mob Rule in New Orleans.
