Original Note:
The video above is an example of a lynching, a form of violence predominantly targeted at African Americans with almost 5000 documented cases during the Jim Crow era alone! Similar race swapped footage surfaces regularly in response to the police killing of black citizens. https://naacp.org/find-resources/history-explained/history-lynching-america https://www.statista.com/statistics/1175147/lynching-by-race-state-and-race/
