Killing of James Sanders in South Carolina
Incident
James Sander was killed in 1948 in Brunswick County, South Carolina. Sanders and some friends stopped at a gas station to go to the bathroom. Because there were no facilities for Black people at the station, they were asked to go to the back. While at the back, a man who might have been the station’s owner cursed and attacked them with a knife. Sanders was stabbed in the abdomen.
