About this audiobook

The William Lynch letter is an address delivered by a certain William Lynch to an audience on the bank of the James River in Virginia in 1712 regarding control of slaves within the colony and across the South. The letter purports to be a verbatim account of a speech given by a slave owner, in which he tells other slave masters that he has discovered the "secret" to controlling black slaves by setting them against one another.

The whole concept of this letter holds true to this day. Look at what just happened this past couple of weeks. Black people weren't going after the source of their problems but instead chose to destroy their own.
