Most blacks today do not have any memories of those times, since they happened back in the 1930s, a few in the 1940s and no lynchings of blacks in the 1950s(some were killed over the civil rights protest, but no lynchings). There were never "countless" blacks lynched, even in the south. More than there should have been but not in the numbers you suggest.
The blacks today have no memories of being treated like sh**, what they have is the memory of so called black "leaders" telling them that whitey has caused all of their ills and whitey needs to pay.
Saying it is ok for blacks to kill whites in the numbers they are doing today because some blacks were lynched back in the 1920s and 1930s is BS. Want to blame someone for those times? Blame the democrats because they were the political party upholding that type of behavior. KKK were all demwit party members.
Today,we are only one generation from those times and Black Americans still live with painful memories of those events
I grieve for those white Americans who are victims of racial crimes, but please do not use today's Black on white crime as an attempt to minimize the countless Black people who were lynched in the most horrible ways imaginable and never reported
A lot of injustice happened in the past - all over the world. And not just to blacks. And especially not just to the relatively small percentage of the world's blacks who lived in America at the time.
Fortunately no one living in America today had to experience any of the treatment you speak of. But those things still do go on in other parts of the world.
Today the racial-grievance-for-profit-business has rolled over good hearted efforts to ensure equality and justice in America for everyone.
The bright promise of America today is being thrown away so some people can extract "payback" and enrich themselves by wallowing in racism and setting race against race.
Sometimes you just have to man up and move along in life.
“Did you shed tears when Black men and women were lynched and their fingers and toes cut off and handed to the crowd as souvenirs?”
When was that, 1920? That isn’t part of the desegregation era; it is much earlier. Your father might remember it, though he would one of the few left alive that could.
“do not use today’s Black on white crime as an attempt to minimize the countless Black people who were lynched in the most horrible ways imaginable and never reported”
While this occurred and was terrible, and is very much a part of our history, you’d be surprised between the reality of the numbers involved and the perception fueled by race-baiters. When BJ Clinton claimed to remember black churches burning in Arkansas while growing up, it was accepted as The Truth because it had become part of The Myth. Subsequent research proved that not a single black church was burned during that period in Arkansas (though he did set off a couple of suthern church burnings that resulted in arrests of blacks for insurance fires in the 1990s).
The Myth isn’t just about blacks; look at the number of Irish people killed since The Troubles began in the late 1960s, and you’d be shocked that it could be spun into so much. I don’t think the number even reached 2,500 over several years, yet it plays out in our media & American culture as though it was full-fledged war (by comparison the British lost 60,000 men in the first day of the Battle of the Somme in 1916 - more than we lost during the whole Vietnam War).
It’s not white people that blacks have to fear today....it’s their own kind they have to fear.
