Lynching of Negroes in America

Note: The America is not the mordern America that most of us know.
First of all i will explain what is lynching.

Lynching is when an illegal execution of a Negro is carried out. Some examples of lynching is when the Ku Klux Klan attacked Negroes and after beating them up very badly used a length of rope to attached to a high branch in a tree and hang the unfortunate black. However, most of the time the police did not stop these illegal executions because most of them also dislike the African Americans and thus pretended not to notice and allowed the Negroes to die. Another example is where a young male Negro was about to be lynched and his mother came out to prevent it but the whites also lynched her beside her son.
Whites usually lynched Negroes when the whites felt that the black had committed something unforgivable in their eyes such as kissing a white girl. If any whites saw this, the Negro would usually be lynched.
