Lynching is an extrajudicial execution carried out by a mob, often by hanging, but also by burning at the stake or shooting, in order to punish an alleged transgressor, or to intimidate, control, or otherwise manipulate a population of people.

It is related to other means of social control that arise in communities, such as
charivari, Skimmington, riding the rail, and tarring and feathering.

Lynchings have been more frequent in times of social and economic tension, and have often been the means used by the politically dominant population to oppress social challengers.

Lynching is sometimes mistakenly thought of as an exclusively North American activity, but it is found around the world as
vigilantes act to punish people outside the rule of law; indeed, instances of it can be found in societies long antedating European settlement of North America.

Violence in the United States against Black Americans, especially in the South, rose in the aftermath of the Civil War, after slavery had been abolished and recently freed black men were given the right to vote.

Violence rose even more at the end of the 19th century, after southern white Democrats regained their political power in the South in the 1870s. States passed new constitutions or legislation which effectively
disfranchised most blacks and many poor whites, established segregation of public facilities by race, and separated blacks from common public life and facilities.

Nearly 3,500 African Americans and 1,300 whites were lynched in the United States between 1882 and 1968, mostly from 1882 to 1920.

Lynching during the 19th century in the United States, Britain and colonies, coincided with a period of violence which denied people participation in white-dominated society on the basis of race or gender after the Emancipation Act of 1833.

Today lynching is a felony in all states of the United States, defined by some codes of law as "any act of violence inflicted by a mob upon the body of another person which results in the death of the person",

with a "
mob" being defined as "the assemblage of two or more persons, without color or authority of law, for the premeditated purpose and with the premeditated intent of committing an act of violence upon the person of another".

Lynching in the second degree is defined as "any act of violence inflicted by a mob upon the body of another person and from which death does not result".


To sustain a conviction for lynching, at least some evidence of premeditation must be produced, but "the common intent to do violence" may be formed before or during the assemblage[SUP]

Man can always find enough reasons based

on color, caste, creed, customs, culture,

status, wealth, power, nativity, religion, faith,

to feel superior over the others and spread hatred

and kill to punish whenever possible.

What one man does is a crime.

What a mob does is justice!!!
