The lynching of blacks in the South:

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Lynchings of blacks in the South increased at about the same time that Jim Crow laws were being implemented, indicating a correlation between the two. A federal anti-lynching law was not passed until several decades later, in 1940. The other answer choices are incorrect as there was no federal anti-lynching law in 1892, lynching did not decrease before the turn of the century, lynching rates were much higher in the South than the North, and Booker T. Washington's views on accommodation were not directly related to lynching.
