On December 8, 1933, after yet another year of racial terror, the organization launched a sweeping anti-lynching campaign calling on Congress to pass federal safeguards that should have never been controversial in the first place. Lawmakers kept blocking it, choosing politics over the families who were burying their loved ones.
