Henry 'Peg' Gilbert was sitting in church one evening in 1947 when, about 100 yards away, a calf wandered into the road. This would lead to a sequence of events that seemingly had nothing to do with Gilbert, or with his surprising success for a Black farmer in rural Georgia in the 1940s, but it would eventually end in his lynching. The Lynching of Henry 'Peg' Gilbert tells the story of a man whose unjust death resonates as much today as it did 70 years ago.
