"[Carol Anderson] unearths stories that should never have been forgotten and communes with ghosts who still haunt American politics today. As so often happens, the history that we do not know and cannot see proves to be the most important history to know."

— Ron Chernow, Pulitzer Prize-winning author

While recent events have cause some to note a disturbing new trend in American politics, for others they fall within a history of racially-motivated political violence in America. In I, Too, New York Times best-selling author and Emory University professor Dr. Carol Anderson charts a course through the mythos of the United States to shine a light upon events that have shaped our contemporary landscape, but are seldom taught in history class. Presenting incidents of mob violence against Black legislatures, militias, and voters, I, Too is a vital reminder of how we got here, and how political norms are always subject to change.
