Thank goodness lynching is finally recognized as a crime. It was a heavy burden to live in a country where you could lynch people with complete impunity.

Hopefully, when Harris is president she’ll make lynching illegal again and again.

      Incredible! We’ve waited for so long. I don’t understand why we don’t do a federal holiday to mark this occasion. An end to lynching! That’s nothing to sneeze at. Maybe we even need several days off work to honor every victim who died since 1955.

    they do act as though there was zero racial progress since 1870. It’s apparently important to their narrative.

      Kamala keeps saying that the border wall is useless and is a vanity project for Trump. And then she comes out with this that is supposed to be mega useful and not a vanity project. What sense can this possibly make?

    I mean, the ADL is still marking the lynching of pedophile Leo Frank after over 109 years. So I don’t know what your point is here.

      Actually a good point. The ADL is a disgusting anti-american organization.
