Identity and Formation: Character Development and the Shaping of a "Crusader for Justice" -- Black slave family's moral situation in Mississippi during the Civil War -- Freed-person of color's moral situation during Reconstruction -- Head of family's response to the 1878 yellow fever epidemic-- Wells on lynching : an overview -- Investigating facts -- Interpreting data -- Challenging "alleged causes" -- The issue of race and lynching -- The social construction of gender and lynching -- The intersection of economics and lynching -- Re-orientation : viewing justice in a racially violent world -- Re-evaluation : demythologizing hegemonic structures -- Re-interpretation : defining hope from a minorityperspective -- Just act : a mandate to talk about the lynched.

In an increasingly globalized economy, Sims argues that Ida B. Wells's fight against lynchingis a viable option to address systemic forms of oppression. More than a century since Wells launchedher anti-lynching campaign, an examination of her work questions America's use of lynching as a tool to regulate behavior and the manner in which public opinion is shaped and lived out in the privatesector. Ethical Complications of Lynching highlights the residual effects of lynching as a twenty-first century moral impediment in the fight to actualize ethical possibilities.
