Strange Fruit Watch is a digital platform dedicated to exposing and documenting the ongoing violence against Black people in America, including mysterious deaths, unexplained hangings, and police killings that often go underreported in mainstream media. Inspired by Ida B. Wells’s fearless anti-lynching journalism and the haunting legacy of “Strange Fruit,” the site serves as a space for remembrance, awareness, and action. Through news updates, archives, and community voices, Strange Fruit Watch ensures that these tragedies are neither ignored nor forgotten, demanding justice and accountability for every lost life.
“Strange Fruit,” written in 1937 by Abel Meeropol and sung by Billie Holiday in 1939, exposed the horror of lynching and became a haunting anthem against racial violence.
