The End of Public Execution: Race, Religion & Punishment in the American South
Michael Ayers Trotti
Before 1850, all legal executions in the South were performed before crowds that could number in the thousands; the last legal public execution was in 1936. This study focuses on the shift from public executions to ones behind barriers, situating that change within our understandings of lynching and competing visions of justice and religion.
