THEY CRIED. WE DIED.
The most dangerous lie in American history isn’t found in legislation — it’s found in a tear-streaked face.

The Lying Tears of White Women in American History is a searing, unflinching examination of how white women have weaponized their perceived innocence to instigate violence, manipulate systems, and uphold white supremacy — from slavery to the smartphone era.

This provocative book blends historical research, cultural analysis, and modern examples to trace how white women’s tears have justified lynchings, shaped courtroom outcomes, and fueled viral 911 calls that nearly ended lives.

Inside, you’ll uncover:

• The deadly ripple effect of Carolyn Bryant’s lie that led to Emmett Till’s murder

• How the “Karen” phenomenon is rooted in centuries of racial power dynamics

• Why white womanhood has been treated as sacred — even when it wasn’t truthful

• What it will take to dismantle the myth and build a more honest, accountable future

If you've ever asked, "Why are they still believed?" or "Why are we still dying because of it?" — this book has your answer.

It’s not just a history lesson — it’s a warning. And a call to action.
