Thousands of whites descended on an Indiana park to hang a pair of black men accused of raping a white woman. The image is a shocking reminder of how recently something like this could happen in the U.S.
This horiffic picture really tells us a lot about our country. Yes, some people may argue that it happened a long time ago, but if we put it in perspective, it really isn't that long ago. When i read the paragraph above, i felt sick. Not because they hung the men, but because they didnt even have solid evidence that they did it, they just accused them. The worst part of this picture is the fact that some people are actually happy they died. That just makes me sick.
