In 2016 artist Dread Scott flew a new version—“A man was lynched by POLICE yesterday”—in New York's Union Square during protests over the police killing Alton Sterling and Philando Castile. www.pbs.org/newshour/amp...
This flag once protested lynching. Now it's an artist's response to police violence
A version of this flag once flew outside NAACP headquarters in New York City during the 1920s and '30s to protest lynchings.
A man was lynched today, in Missouri.
