“High-Tech Lynching’ continues in Durham, N.C. by Cash Michaels Special to the NNPA from the Wilmington Journal Originally posted 5/8/2006
DURHAM, N.C. (NNPA) – While some in the African-American community have accused the news media and defense attorneys’ of engineering a “high-tech lynching” of the Black female alleged victim in the Duke lacrosse gang rape case, continued this week with defense motions seeking to portray her as a dishonest drug addict and alcoholic with a criminal past.
“From the beginning, we demanded that the defense lawyers had a community responsibility not to demean the accuser in public, which only incites passion,” N.C. NAACP President Rev. William Barber told a mass church meeting recently. “This case cannot be decided between the front page and the sports page of the newspaper. It must be decided, after careful presentation of all the evidence, by the judge and the jury.”
And while Ragin splits linguistic hairs, it's just another day in Durham.

DURHAM — Duke University police believe that a graduate student was found shot to death late Friday night.

Since 1949, Durhamites have slept soundly, secure in the knowledge that, in our town, erection can be depended upon. Now, thanks to the power of the internets, we can spread that security all over the world.
