SUMMARY:Book Talk with Gianluca De Fazio | Lynching in Virginia
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a free talk by historian Gianluca De Fazio on his 
 latest book\, “Lynching in Virginia: Racial Terror and Its Legacy.” 
 Although not associated with lynching as often as other southern states\, 
 Virginia has a tragically extensive history with these horrific crimes. 
 This consequential book examines the more than 100 people who were lynched 
 in Virginia between 1866 and 1932. De Fazio and contributors recover the 
 wider history of lynching in Virginia\, interrogate its legacy\, and 
 spotlight contemporary efforts to commemorate the victims of racial terror 
 across the Commonwealth. Together\, their essays represent a significant 
 contribution to the growing effort to come to terms with the role Virginia 
 played in perpetuating America’s national shame. \n\nDe Fazio is an 
 associate professor in the Department of Justice Studies at James Madison 
 University. His research interests include the study of political violence 
 in Northern Ireland and lynching in the U.S. South. He is the director of 
 two digital history projects: Racial Terror: Lynching in Virginia and 
 Memorializing Racial Terror: Lynching Markers in the United States. \n\nTo 
 view the collection of Library of Virginia records that De Fazio and his 
 students used to research the Racial Terror: Lynching in Virginia project\,

 program. This is a free event\, but registration is required. Seating in 
 the Lecture Hall is available on a first come\, first served basis. Limited 
 free parking is available underneath the Library at 800 East Broad Street.
