#MaryTurner, a young Black woman eight months pregnant, publically denounced the #lynching of her husband #HazelTurner, one of 13 killed in the #May1918Lynchings. For this she was #lynched herself, on #ThisDayInHistory in 1918. We had to wait until 2018 for an anti-lynching law.

Mary "The Burner" Turner has died.
In the 1970's I lived in So. California and was a devoted listener of 94.7 KMET with Mary, B. Michell Reid, Shadow Stevens, Jimmy Rabbit, et al. When FM radio was an experience.
