Discover the True Story Behind the 1908 Russellville Lynching

Contrary to popular belief, the men lynched in Russellville in 1908 were not lynched on the public square. To learn what really happened, join us for a special screening of a new documentary at the SEEK Museum Rosenwald School, 536 East 6th Street, Russellville, Kentucky, on Sunday, August 3, 2025, at 3:00 p.m.

This powerful documentary sheds light on the true events surrounding the 1908 lynching and is part of our ongoing commitment to preserving and sharing local African American history.

Admission is free and open to the public.
The museum’s exhibit on the lynching will also be open for viewing.

We welcome all to attend, learn, and reflect.
