The Sport of the Gods and The Lynching of Jube Benson were written both around 1901 and 1902 by Paul Laurence. Sadly, I detect many similarities in both texts. They described the same unjustified situation of Africans Americans servants where they were judged by their skin color. Africans Americans were suspects of any criminal or illegal situation. They were judged without doubt benefit. Berry Hamilton and Jube Benson were judged by their employers, by the persons that really knew them. It is sad to learn how men forget their feelings and their values when they had to make a judgment. In the both cases did not matter how good human beings were Jube or Berry because both were black. It did not matter that they were not considered slaves, they continued seen as animals without soul, feelings, and values. In those times black people were considered as criminals without reason, just for their skin color. The difference between both cases was that Berry went to jail and was sentenced, but Jube Benson did not have judgment, he was killed by the person that he never imagined. The lynching of Jube Benson is one of the many cases of lynching in the history. However, I think that Benson’s lynching is one of the most shocking cases because he was killed by the person that he cared, the person that he saw not only as his employer, he saw as a friend. Benson was a devote servant that found the death in the person that he trusted.
