Racial Violence Archive

The Racial Violence Archive (RVA) gathers and shares information related to racist violence in U.S. history. The collection focuses on terroristic acts (i.e., intimidation, violence, and reprisal used to create fear and control behavior) targeting African Americans in the 20th century U.S. South but will expand to incorporate other aspects of race-related political violence as the project continues.
