From time to time I get interested in a topic, and do a little study, mostly on X. Probably I should save some of these for the archives, even if only so I don’t have to look up the same data again later.
The usual Race Hustlers would have you believe that people were hanged (“lynched”) simply because of skin color.
Are you surprised to find out this is not true?
The most comprehensive study of lynching was done by Tuskegee University, covering 1882-1968.
They found 4,743 incidents, including 3,446 Blacks and 1,297 Whites.
In many Northern and Western States, White lynchings outnumbered Blacks, including:
Arizona 31/0
California 41/2
Idaho 20/0
Iowa 17/2
Vermont 1/0
