the willie lynch letter: myth or model?
the willie lynch letter: it is a document recognized as a model of perpetuating a structure of slavery for african peoples, particularly in the u.s.
the letter gained national recognition in the 1990s; because of this, there continues to be a debate regarding it's authenticity. is it a hoax, or was it simply unearthed after many years at that time? if indeed it is a hoax, who is the author? is it written in malice or concern? is it a satire?
is the 'willie lynch letter' merely a written outline of what black people are doing to themselves? is it written in order to get people to awaken from their conditioned slumber?
