Today Black Americans "will barbecue, and dance, and pray, and love, and live in the name of freedom," Kellie Carter Jackson writes. "The rest of America can use the day off to work on its own freedom—from a shameful past and a violent present." https://t.co/mpMpsfSc1D

The U.S. has 5% of the world’s population; 25% of its prisoners. 5.3 million Americans are denied their right to vote. People of color represents 60% of people in cages.

100 hundred years ago today.

On June 15, 1920, police arrest several young black men accused of raping a white woman. That evening, three of them – Elias Clayton, Elmer Jackson, and Isaac McGhie – are taken from jail by a mob and lynched.

Great article by @katekilla. When Karen Kilgariff and Georgia Hardstark "dig into the creepiest bits of their stories, their curiosity feels like permission to feel our own". https://t.co/UxJgFkF9yO @KarenKilgariff @GHardstark @MyFavMurder #truecrime

“I am the axe woman of the sacrifice sect. I killed them all, men, women, and babies, and I hugged the dead babies to my breast. But I am not guilty of murder.”

Read the chilling true story of this teenage voodoo priestess in Sacrificial Axe. https://t.co/dKBK6RfNO1

On the door, the killer wrote: “When he maketh the inquisition for blood, he forgetteth not the cry of the humble.”

Louisiana, 1909. Frogs are calling, rice fields are rustling, and whole families are being slaughtered in their beds. By the time the bizarre truth behind the “Axe-man” murders came out, over forty men, women and children were dead. https://t.co/qjNREPGsG0 #TrueCrime #Murder

Before the celebrated lady killers of Chicago, the Musical, there was Tillie Klimek. This Jazz Age “Mrs. Bluebeard” liked her husbands neat...with an arsenic chaser. #truecrime #NewRelease #Poison

For a limited time, we're giving away FREE the audiobook for Killer Genius: The Bizarre Case of the Homicidal Scholar.

NY, 1870. Was he evil? Mad? An obsessed genius? Or just a conman? Even Mark Twain had an opinion. #truecrime #history #killer
