The book is mostly about ongoing lynchings in modern Kenya—their ethnography (they are, among other things, savage), their history (they mushroomed ca. 1991 to continuing high numbers), their documentation (by means of the linked Kenya Lynchings Database), USDOS country reports on human rights practices as a poor source of statistics on them (shame on us Americans). The last addendum includes summaries of some December 2025-February 2026 lynchings-related articles that see brought to 3,568 the number of lynched persons reported about at least minimally by KLD materials. What may shock most readers, hopefully into constructive action, is how much worse a problem with lynchings at least several African countries have, numerically speaking, than the US has had for its entire recorded lynchings history—e.g., 508 for Kenya for 1993, 543 for 2011, 579 or close to it for 2025; 2,124 for South Africa for FY 2022/23; 11,140 for Uganda for just twenty of the years 2001-2024; 16,962 for Tanzania for 1996-2015.
