THINGS THEY DONT TEACH YOU IN AMERICAN HISTORY


article in dallas am paper...ACROSS GENERATIONS, LYNCHINGS REVERBERATE.....without a trial...reported u.s. lynchings from 1882 to 1968...(196fucking8):4,743 total, 3,446 Blacks and 1,297 non-blacks..
States with the highest number of lynchings:
Mississippi:581
Georgia:531
Texas: 493
Louisiana:391
Alabama: 347

Can you imagine? They had to pass a bill to make it illegal to lynch people..? whathafuck?
and the Senate wouldnt pass the bill...until forced finaly...now the Senate is preparing to make amends for failure to act...does the expression "its about fucking time"...mean anything to them. People actually had post cards made up of the lynchings...little souviner from the south...
