September 14, 2023. Beginning in 2021, James Madison University and the Library of Virginia started a collaboration to retrieve, digitize and transcribe more than 300 pages of primary source materials documenting lynching in the commonwealth from 1866-1932. The materials are now freely available through the Lynching and Racial Violence Collection at LVA. You can read more about this project in this UncommonWealth blog post by Justice Studies Associate Professor Gianluca De Fazio.
