Lynching "Souvenirs" and Dissection Photography

Below is the link to the website I mentioned in class (titled Without Sanctuary) that archives lynching "souvenirs" in the form of postcards and photographs. In Medical Apartheid Washington suggests that there are comparisons to be made between photographs taken of dissection and lynching "souvenirs." Does this site (in particular the video you can view on it) help us to better understand this connection? You may consider writing one of your posts for this week on this topic.
