About this listen
After Sundown: Monett & Pierce City traces how racial terror in the Ozarks turned into policy-by-practice. We follow the 1894 lynching in Monett and the 1901 mob violence in Pierce City—not just as crimes, but as the start of forced expulsions that erased Black neighbors from maps, deeds, and memory. We say the names—Hughlett Ulysses Hayden; Will Godley; French Godley; Peter Hampton—and track what came next: homes burned, families fleeing, land transferred on the cheap. Then we pull the thread forward to today, where patterns of resegregation echo through schools, zoning, voting, and public life. This episode is receipts-driven, scene-based, and aimed at one question: What did sundown really do to people—and what traces remain?
