Mary Turner
FameRank: 6

"Mary Turner" was a thirty-three-year-old African-American woman, lynching/lynched in Lowndes County, Georgia. Eight months pregnant, Turner and her child were murdered after she publicly denounced the extrajudicial killing of her husband by a mob. Her death is considered a stark example of racially motivated mob violence in the American south, and was referenced by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People/NAACP's anti-lynching campaign of the 1920s, 1930s and 1940s. She is one of at least 148 African-American women who were lynched in America.
