    Audio Rewind: Remembering The Story Of Ed Johnson
    Ray Bassett
    On March 19th, 1906, a violent mob lynched Ed Johnson, a young Black man, on the Walnut Street Bridge here in Chattanooga. In 2021, the Ed Johnson Memorial was dedicated near the bridge - and two series airing on WUTC told his story: "We Care Now," by podcasting students at UTC, and "The Ed Johnson Conversations" on "Scenic Roots."
