KKK LYNCHED Bumpy's Nephew in Harlem — What Happened in 7 Days Made Police LOOK AWAY

September 15th, 1946. Thomas Johnson, a 19-year-old Columbia University student, was found hanging from a tree in Marcus Garvey Park, Harlem. The NYPD ruled it "suicide." But everyone in Harlem knew the truth: five KKK members had lynched him. Thomas was Bumpy Johnson's nephew. Over the next seven days, something happened in Harlem that would change everything. Five men who participated in the lynching were systematically destroyed. One was found hanging in his garage. Another was burned beyond recognition. A third went insane in the woods. The fourth lost everything he owned. The fifth begged police for protection—from Bumpy Johnson. But Bumpy didn't stop there. On the seventh day, the entire KKK cell in Harlem—15 men who met in a warehouse on East 98th Street—faced a choice: disband and leave New York, or burn. Ten chose to stay. Seven died in the fire that night. The NYPD investigated none of it. Detectives looked the other way. Because sometimes, when the justice system fails completely, justice comes from somewhere else. This is the true story of September 1946. The week that ended the KKK's presence in Harlem. The story history books don't tell. The story of what happened when one uncle decided that his nephew's lynching wouldn't go unanswered. ⚠️ CONTENT WARNING: This video discusses historical racial violence, including lynching.
