She was seventeen years old. A mob of about a dozen men took her out of a jail cell and hanged her in the street. Marie Scott. Wagoner, Oklahoma, 1914.
Accounts of what happened are consistent on the core: a white man had forced his way into her home and attacked her, and her brother killed him defending her. Her brother escaped.
So they took the girl instead. She is one of the very few documented lynching of a Black woman in Oklahoma, and one of the youngest women in the national record.
Seventeen. Held in a cell, taken from a cell, and killed for surviving an assault that her attacker did not survive.
Nobody was charged. Say her name — most people have never heard it once.

The unspoken thing here is that the jaw drop is not actually due to the scale of the dust plume but specifically because it is happening in New York. The same video taken in Beirut or Tehran would never get the same reaction from the viewer.
You have to use AI images because the real photos from 1980s Israel show you shooting Palestinian women.
(Hamas didn't even exist yet - it would be founded soon after specifically to fight back against this.)
